Congratulations!! What is your favorite thing to do? Everyone's ideal soberversary date is just like every other day for me. I wake up, I pray, I get to a meeting and share my experience because it's part of carrying the message. I remember it's not about me, and I give of myself freely to my Higher Power. Do you go to meetings?

I usually do something to treat myself - buy something personal, clothes, jewelry,bath n body works - go to lunch & a movie.... something that you'd like to do. I myself started getting a new tattoo of something to treat myself - other times a new piercing. Oh yeah happy 2 and sober anniversary.

Congratulations on 2 years of sobriety​:tada::tada: Celebrating on a budget should feel no different than going all out. In fact, perhaps having a chill day can give you a chance to sit back and soak it all in. Take the time to enjoy the everyday activities. Take time to feel the presence of your HP as you go about your day. Whether you’re eating, showering, walking in the yard, stay mindful of how grateful you feel to be free of the bondage of active addiction. Be intentional with some pre selected medications. The journey to get where you are has been long and hard. You have finally made it out of those most difficult chapters, and now you get to enjoy the gifts

Thanks! I went to meetings in the beginning but don't anymore. I practice the principles, especially taking inventory and promptly making wrongs as right as I can. I walk with God now, live humbly and take it ODAAT

Thank you! I was thinking of a nice lunch with a friend and love the jewelry idea, maybe a new ring!

It has been a long difficult road! My relationship with my HP is most important to me now. Thank you for your meaningful words
