Congratulations on discovering that you’re an addict/alcoholic! You deserve this! You fucking deserve it! Oh! That’s not a bad thing. It’s the best news you could have found out. The fact that you struggled all those years and have found yourself at the end of this rope is fantastic! Rejoice! You are one of the lucky ones! Could you imagine living the rest of your life never making this discovery? How miserable of an existence would that be? Trudging day-to-day, looking to get shitfaced or high with the end result always the same? You wake up and do it all over again. How boring is that! How monotonous that would be! Oh, wait… How fucking monotonous it was! Because you are now sober, you get to see the differences. You get to embrace the change and newness of it all. Can you smell that? That’s life! And it’s being cooked up right in front of you. Eat that shit up!

Reflections

How often do you forget that you are the lucky one? How often do you think, “why me?” when the truth is, it couldn’t have happened to a better person.

Daily Challenge

Go help someone discover the same thing you have found. Share the wealth. Help the head chef cook some shit up!
