“Turns out everything I’d been feeling my whole life: deep-seated resentment, debilitating fear, erratic rage, colossal shame, the feeling that I somehow deserved to feel pain and was simultaneously a waste of space—all commonalities amongst sober alcoholics.
I was also quickly informed of how lucky I was to hit my rock bottom so young. We like to say, ‘There’s a bottom below the bottom you know,’ meaning we can choose to keep digging, to keep ripping and running, to keep drinking, but we don’t have to. A sufficient bottom does not need to include total calamity for it to be enough to make someone stop.” –Tori Muzyk
“Happiness is a choice, not a result. Nothing will make you happy until you choose to be happy.”— Ralph Marston.
