Two Years!

Two years...two amazing, challenging, awesome, soulful, enlightening years sober. 

I am still as tickled pink as I was when I picked up a one month chip, still as grateful and hopeful, but much less fearful. It's been quite the journey to get here. This past year has brought some sad good-byes but it has also brought some very joyful hellos. 

I am just as in love with AA as ever. I still keep my nose in the Big Book and my tushie in the chair. My home group is my family and my Higher Power is a loving Father I can turn to no matter what. I am so thankful for this forum too. I don't post here all that much but I read most every word and take the best along with me as I  trudge the road of happy destiny. 

Thanks for being a valuable part of my sobriety! :)

Thank you all so very much. It was a really special day and then last night I was able to speak at a local meeting and share my experience, strength and hope with others. I love how this program works and I love being a part of MIP. :)
