Showing Original Post only (View all)Today (April 30th) was my 14 year AA anniversary. 14 years sober. [View all]
And I couldn't have done it without help. It took me awhile, but I learned from others what to do, particularly from my awesome AA sponsor. She passed away 4 years ago and I still miss her, but she still inspires me. And now it's my turn to pay it forward.
I received one of these today. I kind of hate to give up lucky 13, but I carry my coin with me as a reminder of where I've been and how far I still have to go. And if I can do it, anyone can.
