Yesterday was my 28th birthday. I had an amazing breakfast with my Dad, Mom and brother (happens to also have his been my brother’s bday… 1 year older than me). Anyway, we did that because my Dad had to leave town in the afternoon for a family emergency and wasn’t able to make it to dinner. So I spent the day with my loved ones and then dinner with Mom and brother, went home and happily lounged around. Being the first birthday sober in 10 years, I had a lot to celebrate and be thankful for. Who better to celebrate with than the people who love you most! It was a great day and great night and the perfect birthday! Later I’m going to a carnival with friends to finish off the celebration, something I haven’t gone to in years (didn’t go out much as a full-time addict). It’s amazing realizing the limitless opportunities I now have. This hasn’t been the easiest road but the hard work is truly showing me a life I was too blind to see. I still have ups and downs like everyone else, I still have trouble sleeping but my eyes are open enough to see the beauty in this short life and I am very excited for what ever the future brings!
