My letter to the old friend.
For some time I have this thought in my head to write a goodbye letter to alcohol. The first scripts of this letter were very dramatic and emotion driven.
I was in hate and anger with the liquid, hateful phrases and thoughts were popping up in my head.
“How could you do this to me?”
“You are the worst”
“I hate you, I hate you, I hate you”
Not long ago, when I checked my thoughts about alcohol, this dramatic scenery changed. I was indifferent towards the booze. My interest for alcohol is gone, I don’t want to waste energy being angry or mad.
But there is something even better popping up in my head today. What is better than indifference? Gratefulness! A friend of mine said something today that stuck with me, and I really like this perspective. He said I could be grateful towards alcohol because it made me go through struggles which made me stronger. Let’s try this forced positivity injection.
This is my goodbye letter to alcohol.
Alcohol, thank you for letting me fall on my head and change my life around.
Thank you for showing me how strong I really am and what I am capable of.
Thanks that you kept me away from buying expensive, shiny things.
Thank you for letting me enjoy sobriety and the little things in life more.
Thank you for making me struggle, so I could accumulate the power to win later on.
Thank you for everything and Goodbye!
