This morning in the shower, I was thinking about how different my life is today as compared to how it was 1 year ago. I had an epiphany when I realized a monumental difference: I am actually living fully in the present now. A year ago when I was acting out, I wasn't present in interactions with my family, friends, nor my clients. I was always fantasizing or obsessing about my most recent qualifier so in all actuality, I wasn't even present with myself. It has taken me many months to get to this good place and one of the many things in recovery that I am grateful for is being present. I never truly realized how much I was missing out on in life. I feel blessed to have found my way to recovery and not be living in misery and anxiety anymore! 😊
