Moods. They come and go. For some reason I’m in a down mood today. I know the reason. This down mood is not me. It’s just a feeling. It will pass. I believe that’s why I need a foundation. Something to lean on when emotions and moods are up and down. God is the only foundation(rock) that I can see that’s worthwhile to rely on. I’ve made a lot of positive changes and I’m very optimistic but I’m still human. Leaving alcohol behind doesn’t fix everything. As of today I’ve gone four weeks without alcohol. Leaving it forces me to face things I was avoiding. Falling in love with the fight is a thought I had while running the other day. I may never get to a point in my life when I don’t have a fight on my hands. Maybe everyone does. I don’t know. I have to embrace the fight and challenge as an opportunity to get better instead of being frustrated by it. One thing for sure is when I leave this earth people will know I did fight. A goal of this blog is to not hide struggles and to give an avenue to possibly help or give hope to someone else who has to fight. We don’t have to be alone. Reach out if you’re reading this and don’t want to be alone in your fight. Wednesday will be a month without alcohol. I’m going to celebrate and have a drink. A coconut water drink which I really love and never would’ve dreamed it🥥
