One year and one day

Milestones
1

As I sit here and reflect on this journey, many things come to mind. I was only suspose to take a break from drinking, but thanks to this TS community, I found answers to questions that I never realized I had.
This past year has been one of discovery and strength. Circumstances had me in a place where I could not run from my past anymore. I decided I would face this head on and I would do it without numbing the pain. After tons of reading, workshops on generational trauma healing, getting certified on, Bio Energy Healing, attending CBT classes, meditating and daily checks here, I am finally ready to surrender. I take nothing for granted, but I feel safe.
For every person who was brave enough to share their story, thank you. Your courage, your pain, YOU, helped me in ways that you may never know. Looking forward to one year and two days :wink:

Spectacular is how I feel every time I think to myself-- I don’t have, or need to drink today! Sounds to me like you think that way too. Congratulations!
