“Sobriety made me aware of all the time I had lost, and I felt old. The five-year-old me, who dreamed of space blankets and glory, had lost her way; she had ceded early-morning runs to sleep off hangovers, had yielded her health to bottles and cigarettes, had relegated her enthusiasm for sports, for play, for daytime, and for life to nothing more than fantasy. Running was among those things I talked about doing rather than actually doing. I had led a vampire existence with no room for the wonder of little-girl dreams. But I was determined to resurrect those dreams; I owed it to the small five-year-old with space-blanket stars in her eyes.” (Unwasted- My Lush Sobriety by Sacha Z. Scoblic) Its end of the work day and youre probably considering happy hour or that drink to unwind...but try something different today! Its day 1 of #14Days on the wagon. Maybe there is something you need to cut out or back to help you realize your dreams?!!
