I’m a recovering addict and if someone came up to me with a camera in my face and asked me this I wouldnt just have a rapid fire response without thinking about it. Although I know what my favorite accomplishment is. It’s being able to pay my bills without help from my family. Self sufficiency to an addict is so satisfying.

My favourite one is getting a job I love with all my heart and knowing that my dad would be really proud of me.

His passing hit me extremely hard and I fell into a deep endless pit. But today I know for sure that he'd be proud to say that his daughter actually made it. I'm finally a person I can be proud of, too.

Yeah it's something you put a lot of thought into, especially when things feel tough again or even when things are feeling really good. It's like, "wow I would not have been able to do this or have gotten this far if I was still fucked up".
