I have never been so healthy. In mind or body. I had to modify my diet to get well. I want to be even better and I do believe that I can gain more by modifying my diet further. As it is, I haven't been a meat eater in years. I quit mainly because I had digestive problems. Likely caused by having a liquid diet for a couple of years before I quit drinking.
It has been exciting this past year things really started to happen. I am officially busy. I still try to watch tv. I go on Social Media to let people know what is going on with me. I began university. I talked about Freedom from Alcohol and Drug Addiction. I am glad to talk about my experiences. I am glad to be a role model of sorts.
It's fun to be sober. I am enthusiastic about many things. I like my friends. They like me. Some of my relationships have grown. Others stay the same. Some are no more. I have a family around me.
But wait! Not everything is perfect. Some things are much worse. I have had such grief I have never known since I sobered up. I don't focus on that, and that's how I get by. One day at a time.
