Gnocchi and Gratitude: A Day in Luke Hand's Sobriety Journey
Sobriety is not just about avoiding alcohol, but also about creating a life that's worth living. Every day is an opportunity to make progress and find joy in the little things.
Ever wondered what a day in the life of someone committed to sobriety looks like? Luke Hand's diary entry for May 31st, 2021, offers a candid peek into his world. The day kicks off with a minor work scare involving an Excel mishap, but Luke quickly sorts it out and even enjoys the novelty of working while standing up.
After clocking out, he treats himself to a gnocchi breakfast loaded with garlic salt—because why not start the day with a bit of indulgence? A leisurely walk with his mum follows, adding a touch of family bonding to his routine. The evening brings a slight hiccup as his TV goes on the fritz, making him miss 'Masterchef'. But Luke takes it in stride, diving into 'The Mosquito Coast' on Apple TV instead, which he finds 'damn good'.
Not one to let the day end without some creativity, he spends time playing with wax for ring-making and eagerly plans his next crafting project. By day's end, Luke logs his mood and energy as 'good' and 'fine', reflecting on a day well-lived. This episode isn't just about staying sober; it's about finding joy in everyday moments and embracing life's simple pleasures. Tune in to hear Luke's reflections and maybe find some inspiration for your own journey.
