Life is better being sober that is for sure. Though, at times, less entertaining. Pot is truly aggravating of my mental health condition and I am way happier without it. So are my family and friends with whom I correspond. The goal is to be sober for a whole year, then, forever. That was recommended by my doctor who said one week sober is not enough in the long run , of course. 

I should write a tale about Fiji in 1997, when we missed the coup which happened the day after we left Fiji for New Zealand. However, I remember very little of that trip so I would need photos. It was a very long time ago though we went back in 2000 I think. I am so grateful for all these travels. They have shaped my mind and heart about others and the world.
