I had a pretty bad night last night. Left alone with my thoughts isn’t always the best thing. I drank heavily last night. The entire time I didn’t want to be drinking and I wanted to be sober but I just couldn’t stop. I was aware enough to reach out to a couple of friends about it and they were amazing and supportive.
One reached out today to see if we could talk but I have other obligations today and not sure if I’ll have time to talk on the phone. His reply when I told him that was as simple as could be but meant the world and exactly what I needed to hear and to tell myself. “Make good decisions. Don’t be so hard on yourself. I love you.” Those three sentences made my morning and immediately made me stop the awful self talk I had in my mind from slipping up last night. I’m not resetting my counter because I’m not starting completely over. I had a bad night and hit a bump in the road. Albeit a pretty big bump but that’s all it was.
So, I will say the exact same thing to all of you…
Make good decisions. Don’t be so hard on yourself. I love you.
Have a great day everybody!

Sounds like a good friend, also sounds like God speaking though people.
