I didn’t fight that hard to stay alive just to spend the rest of my life doing what I was “supposed” to do.
I wanted the whole fu***ng thing.
I wanted to marry who I wanted.
Dress how I wanted.
Live where I wanted.
Build the business I wanted.
Make my own money.
Change my mind.
Take the trip.
Buy the ridiculous outfit.
Dance.
Laugh too loud.
Start over.
Say no.
Say FCK no.
And have so much fun being alive that sometimes I can’t believe this is the same life I once wanted to escape from.
I didn’t get sober to become more acceptable. To smoke myself to death. To eat unhealthy and feel uncomfortable in my body. To be triggered constantly and take out my anger on others.
I got sober to become more ALIVE.
And I’m going to squeeze every last drop out of this gift of life.
