A good day does not have to be the “calm before the storm”. -The Language of Letting Go

A good day isn’t the rainbow after the storm either. Sometimes a good day is simply a good day. Although, with that said, the days following my last drink have been a rollercoaster of emotions. Most of my life I’ve worked on controlling anything I felt to the point I did not feel most of the time; alcohol allowed me to feel something, whether it was happiness, sadness, anger, anything. Now I understand that I was only feeling lies, because whatever alcohol brought out was not me or who I wanted to be. 

Sobriety has allowed me to start feeling again, feeling the truth, and even on the days where I am confused, or emotionally drained, I take it as it is and allow myself to sit with that. Everyday without a drink is a good day.
