Three Years

It’s been more than three years since I drank.

There’s no deeper lesson or reflection here. I just wanted to express gratitude.

I’m grateful for the mornings. For remembering how the night ended, the conversations I had, and the memories that were made.

I’m grateful to the friend who asked me, before I stopped drinking, how I wanted to be remembered.

I’m grateful for everyone who stayed, and for the gym, yoga, meditation, and my spiritual practice.

I’m grateful for trusting myself again.
