man, it's those quiet moments that really get ya sometimes. I was just listening to a song that came on shuffle and it brought back a memory of a good friend I lost a few years back. Not directly related to my drinking, but it's like grief just… sits different now. it’s not numbed out, it’s just there, raw. and that can be SO hard. it’s like you feel everything, the good and the bad, and sometimes the bad feels overwhelming. but then I remember that feeling it means I’m present, I’m actually living through it, not escaping it. and that's a BIG deal. even when it hurts. ❤️‍🩹 anyone else relate to grief feeling different in sobriety?
