I just helped someone not take a drink.

I've been running my homegroup meetings the past few months, and providing my phone number for new folks without a sponsor, etc. I was always a little bit nervous about being a good support person if someone did reach out.

I just had my first person reach out, while I was running an errand away from work, with a 'burning desire' - and they told me that I helped them decide to not go to a bar in that moment, and that they were going to hop in a Zoom meeting instead.

That was a nice feeling - it was also a great way to remind myself of where I was less than 2 years ago, and just reaffirm that, for me, working the program is what helps keep me sober.
