7 Years Sober
Seven years…wow. On April 6, 2019 I almost died due to my alcohol abuse. It was right here on Aruba, the place I call a second home.
Most people reading this have known both versions of me. And yet, many of you have only known the sober version of me. It still gives me pause that that is the case. Especially when I consider that the amount of time that I have sober is a small (but growing) fraction of my years.
So what have I learned?
Mostly, I’ve learned that I can’t fix anything with alcohol and that gratitude is the number one thing that keeps me walking this sober path.
I am grateful for the injury that brought me here to this version of me. 😉
I am quite grateful that I was sober before Covid started. I’m not sure I would have made it through that without therapy and the new coping skills I had gained in my first year of sobriety.
I am so grateful that I have been given the gift of a second chance at being present in my own life.
I’m eternally grateful for the work I’ve done on myself, both in therapy and in my own self-care and self love.
I feel like I’ve grown exponentially in this most recent near decade of my time here on earth. I work harder but also smarter. I feel everything incredibly deeply again. That sensitivity is part of why I drank so much.
If any of this feels like YOUR sign to make a change, MAKE IT before it’s too late. 🙏🏻
Today, I am grateful to be returned to my truest, core self.
I am a kind, generous, compassionate, inclusive, musical, whimsical Unicorn whose purpose on this earth is to bring joy.
🎶 🦄 💕 🎹 💃🏼 💗
Thank you for letting me continue to bring joy to myself and to everyone around me.
