Just one of the many gifts of a worldwide pandemic....was meeting people like Jolie from a part of my own Country I'd never visited. Jolie's sobriety date is close to one I gave up for "outside issues", it's amazing what EGO can take from us...sobriety, peace, joy, presence.
I'm glad she got it when she did and shared her journey and experience to where she is at today.
I love that she talked about what she called "drybriety" because it is definitely a part of our recovery journey that is not talked about enough!
I've seen people with 20, 30 years sobriety behave completely against any principles that they tout in their shares about sobriety and recovery. Principles such as tolerance, patience, forgiveness, humility, letting go and letting God. When someone talks of those principles but leaves a home group in a huff because they took offence to something, that's a perfect example of Dry-briety. Saying we trust in God but only of course until something bad, challenging or unexpected happens, then they cry out, "why me god?". Dry-briety.
Jolie has got what I want. SOBRIETY and principles.
