How is it that after person one gains sobriety coming up on three years next month and still being okay with person two occasionally having a few cocktails once in awhile, that person two could leave out an empty bottle of person one's favorite vice while being an addict?
Person one realizes tis the season for person two to be happy, but at the expense of possibly person ones sobriety?
While this doesn't happen often, person one feels tempted to lick the inside of the empty bottle, but instead chooses to write a detailed explanation of the carelessness with leaving these types of bottles out by person two, also explaining this action can only cause harm towards both persons one and two on multiple levels.
Perhaps after person two sobers up in the morning, will happen to notice said explanation taped to the empty bottle, sitting on the dashboard in person twos vehicle.
For some reason, this made me really sad. I don't know why. :-(

I hope Person 2 is more considerate in the future. I also hope Person 1 remains strong and remembers how awesome 3 years of sobriety is.
ReplyDeleteHugs to you and your family.
Person 2 has promised not to let something so careless happen again and continues to profess their love to person 1. And person 1 feels on top of the world, because the Lord has saved their life and transformed it into something really special despite the occasionally temptation thrown their way.
ReplyDeleteThank you and hugs to you and your family as well. Do you have any big plans for Christmas this year?
ED - It was a sad situation at the time, but things are better for both person 1 and person 2.
ReplyDeleteIt took four years for me. One day at a time.
