"Obviously Obliterated"

    Alcohol became my life, took over my life. It is not fear of my past or fears from my past that have slowed the pace of my recovery here. This is a quiet pace. My past unravels as my future unfurls. That's about as well as I can express it. I am at a time of patience, a rest stop. Neural connections reorganizing. Irrational desires supplanted by rational hopes.

    I cannot rush past my recovery. My recovery is today.
