Almost 3 years ago was the day I put the drink down and when some turned their voices down to me. Everybody isn’t your friend. Never beg someone to be in your life. If you text, call, visit and still get ignored, walk away. It’s called Self-Respect. Fake Friends are like shadows: Always near you at your brightest moments, but nowhere to be seen at your darkest hour. True Friends are like the stars, you don’t always see them but you know they are always there.

Some people think the truth can be hidden with a little cover-up or decoration. But as time goes by, what is true is revealed and what is fake fades away. People pretend well. Respect people who find time for you in their busy schedule. But Love people who never look at their schedule when you need them.

I do not post on here to come off malicious or offensive. I’ve worked a 12-step recovery program to better myself, not to continue to slander and harm others. What I say and how its perceived can be taken with a grain of salt. Respond less to rude, critical, and argumentative people…life is more peaceful.

We are not given a good life nor a bad life. We are given Life. It’s up to us to make it good or bad. I Live to be #Good. #Peace #Sobriety #Recovery
