I so appreciate your reflections and truth. It naturally makes me reflect and ponder the "why" for alcohol at all of our social events. Even when we have "control" (whatever that really means) we are seeking something. I'm the first to say, "I love a glass of wine!" but maybe I give my liver a rest and see if I can't have just as much fun with a mocktail! You inspire me, Devon! Love you.
Your posts always bring up the big feels for me. This one takes me back in the best worst way. I'm amazed I didn't end up dead--or at least in possession of a jail record. And even though it's been a long time since I quit drinking, you Aunt Laura's story sounds very familiar. This is definitely a post I'll reread when I've been spending too much time in my easy chair instead of looking for some goals and something to do with my life. Thank you both for the reminder. ❤️
Via con Dios. You are your Mothers daughter!
