I am a liar. I am lying to others, but

I am a liar.

I am lying to others, but most importantly I am lying to myself. The hardest part of recovery is realizing the lies we tell ourselves. I tried so hard to convince myself that I could be like those “normal” people, having just one drink, just drink on the weekends, to only drink when I go out.

Owning those lies means being open an honest to those around me, but also to myself. I am ready to open my heart and my mind and accept my journey.

I am ready to love myself.
