I decided to take a walk today. The weather was crisp and beautiful. During my walk, I began thinking. I thought about my life over the past years. I thought specifically about all the people who have come and gone, material possessions that have disappeared. It made me a little upset to remember all the things and people I had and taken for granted. Only a few short years ago, I was in college, lots of friends, had a nice car, fabulous clothes and all the latest technology. Over the last 2 years my addiction got worse. Slowly but surely everything I thought was important vanished. Its amazing how the disease of addiction robbed me of everything including my soul.
But then I began to think deeper. Everything I have today is exactly what I wished for at some point in my life. I remember times when I would just pray, god give me strength&guide me down the right path.
God blessed me with two miracles. Motherhood&Recovery. Although times arent easy and sometimes I feel as though I can't go on. I always remember, theses are my better days and the great ones are yet to come.
