Sobriety is a great first step, keep going!

I'm just short of 3 years Sober. Alcohol never did me any favors, but I'm still the angry bitter man I was before. I just can't blame it on the alcohol any more.

I'm in a better place, and I'm working towards being a better me. But Ive been a terrible person. The alcohol dulled the pain, it made me forget, and it gave me an excuse.

I've still bottled up all my anger. I still eat too much and need to get in the gym. I still lash out and say things I regret. I still need to be better towards my family, friends and the world around me. I still need to be better to myself.

Being sober has been a great first step, but it's the first step. Keep going.

Keep being awesome. Be excellent to each other. I will not drink with you today.
