I'm headed to a funeral today. She was not an addict, she lost her battle with cancer. I've known her for more than half my life. 30+ years.
I know this is a weird thing to write for gratitude, but follow along.
Just now a mutual friend put together a playlist with all of our favorites from the 90's and it struck me. This is my gratitude for today. I am so grateful that I get to be sober while I spend time with life long friends as we celebrate our friend's life. I am so grateful to be able to feel every emotion today. What a joy to be able to feel complete happiness and sadness at the same time. I am so grateful to not be numb today.
