This brought me back to my first 60 days and some of your diary entries really hit me. A lot of the same feelings and thoughts going through our minds, so I can relate 100%. Keep doing what you’re doing, you’re doing great. 😊 congratulations 👏❤️
Ugh. This one hit me. I remember the 60 days. And then the many relapses in between the next 60. Until it stuck for me. It was many tries in my story. Many hurdles, too. And I just celebrated 7 years in sept.
Sixty days is no small thing…especially when the turbulence hits mid-flight. You don’t need a party hat for that kind of milestone; sometimes surviving the weekend is the celebration. Proud of you for keeping both hands on the wheel, even when the sky’s a little gray.
lucie, you know i love your diary entries. your way of storytelling is always so so gripping and raw and human. congratulations on 60 days- even if you don't feel like celebrating it's still such an accomplishment! i look forward to the next update <3
Keep at it. The "daily mundane" things are what life is really about. They aren't exciting, glorious, or sexy, but they are "Life". Enjoying the world around you for what it is, and what you can help make it, are things that can help keep you on track, with both your sobriety and your writing. I would hate for you to "back slide" because, you were "bored" or "depressed". Those are the times when, you might need to "close your eyes, count your blessings, and when you open your eyes, see what else you can do in the world".
As for the mental vacation, you are right, that "No matter where you go, there you are."
It is always said as a funny line, but there is a truth to it. No matter where we are, what we are seeing or doing, we are still the same person, and we should be happy with who we are.
As always I enjoy your writings and look forward to your next one.
