One of the biggest fears of beginning any journey is the unknown. We do not know where the journey will take us and that can be quite scary. What will we uncover? What will we find along the way? The journey is as amazing as the final destination. We learn with each step. We learn we have the ability to go in any direction we choose. That direction is very much of our own accord.

You represented yo self very well on the air waves.
I just love your blog and your interview was just wonderful. You touched on so many things especially how people are weirded out by young sober folks (I was 23 when I got sober).
I crack up because I get the "good girl" reference when my boyfriend and I are out in social settings and we end up stating that we don't drink. I'm sure in a few years, I'll be getting the "pregnant" question, too. :-P
I find it amazing that people need to justify another person's sobriety to them...it's just so weird when you think about it.
P.S. I added you under my "fav blog of the moment" link. :)
