Yesterday was my first birthday in 10 years I celebrated with no alcohol . I’m 27. Through all the pain & trauma I experienced, today I can say I found the God of my understanding. I am very new in my sobriety. I did this is a very non traditional way. Everyone told me that I couldnt do it “this way or that” but I did and I made it this far. I have never done that. This is my 2nd time getting sober. I’ve had a spiritual awakening on Monday as well. Everything I’ve been through has lead me to this moment. The last 6 months have been hard. But I did it. Because throughout everything that beautiful person that has persevered through all the shit was still there fighting. Glory to my God because I would not be here today to share what I have experienced. I have been saved. I have a light in my life, a guide. I can hug myself. I can love myself. I can think clearly. Most importantly I do not have to do drugs. I am finding myself because I have found the God I have been searching for and now it’s time to pass that on to my children. Sobriety is possible. I faced some of my demons Monday. I had an unnatural experience that will be explained clearly because someone needs to hear this. I am just so grateful to be alive.
