I don’t have much to say today….hitting the 2 year sober mark is wonderful.
My life is rich
My life is full of wonder
My eyes are open
My perspective has changed
My journey feels new
It’s not perfect
There are challenges
Big Ones
But
By the Grace of God
I’m here
Alive
Engaged
Becoming Disciplined
Valuing Integrity
Experiencing Love
Learning
Sharing
Feeling
Living
Hoping
Crying
Laughing
Breathing
I am young again
In this sober body
I am blessed
By you
You who share your lives
You who share your fears
You who share your hurts
You who write your joys
You who write your love
You who read
I thank you today for motivating me
for guiding me
for being my soft place
Today I’m grateful
Today I am Motivated!

Just found your blog through a giveaway. I really like it and I’ll be coming back :)
Congratulations on your two years!
Congratulations on your 2 years of sobriety. A tremendous achievement!
Two years is no small feat. Congratulations to you!
Congratulations Julie!! Here’s to a ton more years of sobreity! :)
Happy 2nd birthday, Julie!
Congratulations! Fantastic. I can’t wait to be there too. I love that you wrote about feeling young again in a sober body. Putting aside the brain work for a moment, it does feel really nice to have a body that isn’t working like a demon to process litres and litres of wine. A sober body feels good! Take care xxx
It’s a journey to be sure and feeling this youthful exuberance is amazing!
Way to go! I’m so happy for you.
But I need to tell you. Every time I read one of your posts, I feel guilty about how much I blog about drinking. You don’t hate me, do you? I swear I’m not the devil trying to tempt you.
Congratulations!
