Day 159

Dear Readers,

A Place of Peace

I realized the other day, when I was at a function where there was water and wine to drink, that I felt normal. I felt at peace. I didn't have any urges. I didn't care what I had to drink. I poured water into a wine glass, but that was only because it was easier to carry.

I put it down and ended up just talking, laughing, and enjoying the get together.

It felt awesome.

There are no words to express the freedom I am feeling.

I am not fighting myself anymore.

I am not romancing the drink.

I am not feeling sorry for myself.

Instead I have joy.

I choose not to drink the first drink.

I choose happiness.

I choose a way of life I was meant to live, fully here.

It took me awhile to get to this mindset, but in any case I like it!

I think I'll keep it for awhile!

Peace and Hugs,

Wendy
