Tomorrow is yet to come. It is the beginning of the rest of my journey.
I am on my way to the treatment center for three weeks. I am really looking forward to it, however, some recovering addicts find it really difficult to release those feelings that have been locked up for so long.
I will be writing my blog on paper and post them when I get home. Thanks for reading. Your support helps me and also the addicts who still suffer. There are so many out there still and they are lost in a world of darkness and despair.
It is a horrible place to be and I am so grateful I had the support of my family members to lean on and give me the hand up I needed to get out of the darkness.
Everyday I feel a little better than yesterday and I can look forward to tomorrow instead of worrying about it. We can only live in today and for that I am grateful because I know how much of a gift it is to me.
I was at an NA meeting last night and I saw a miracle. A friend of mine walked back into the room of recovery. He had relapsed four weeks ago. He came back. Today he went to a detox center for a week. I really felt God's presence in my life at that moment I saw this friend walk through the door.
It takes a great amount of courage for someone to come back after a relapse. This paticular person had over six months clean time. There are a few others still out there trying to find there way back to the light. I will keep letting mine shine in hopes they will see it glowing.
I must be off now. I still have to pack my things and prepare myself for my journey.
God Bless you all and may you stay forever young.

To know your inner self and to have peace with yourself may be one of the greatest treasures we can give ourselves. We only have the moment - addiction is a choice - you have the power to change your life direction. Given the tools and support you will change direction and your life will be full of beauty.
