I made it back to the gray chip (are they different colors at different meetings?)
Overall, it’s been a great journey. Sure, I’ve thought about alcohol here and there, usually via a brief bullshit romanticization of some memory that wasn’t anywhere near as cool as I tried to make it seem. Then, I remember the hangovers, the bloating, the apologizing to friends, the tracking down my steps, the not achieving goals due to all of the above… and I remember every reason why I quit.
Cheers to you all who are also on the journey. Our lives may be a little more mundane than before. But, that’s because we were addicted to chaos before and thought we thrived only in the sh!t show.
Here’s to thriving in normalcy.
