So grateful and proud of myself, today I'm 30 days sober no alcohol. A decision I finally had to make to be better and feel better. Thank you to the people that have been supportive you know who you are 💜#30days #soberlife #sobriety #stronger #fitlife #happier #rememberingeverything #vegetarian

I believe I might be one of those people who can recall practically everything that happens to me, both good and bad. I feel like this picture represents it nicely. Obviously, tattoos stay on your body forever and some fade a little. Some beautiful, others less than pleasant. This is what it's like, remembering joyful and painful memories as if they just happened yesterday... not only the feeling, but who was there, every word that was said, what they wore, how they smelled, the event and area it took place, why and how it was arranged, what was eaten. Right down to the small awkward glances when silent, the bright genuine smiles when laughing, the despair behind their eyes when crying or trying not to cry, the look of anger and jealousy when saying a hurtful comment. All of this recorded and played back as a movie at any given moment. A movie only you can see, and when telling others realizing that they can only recall the title and the end credits. When only one person remembers a memory, it feels as if the event never took place. Like it was all a dream. Some people wish they could remember more... ...I wish that I could forget.
