Recovery

Entering into some manner of recovery is inevitable for everyone.. I think....

I've seen everyone I know recover from one thing or another...

Everyone has their demons... battles... addictions... health problems... and mishaps along the road of life..

Life rarely takes us where we thought we were going. It always gives us the occational bump or bruise along the way and it's up to us to "recover" or not. I've known a few who have finally said.. Forget it!! I'm done!! and they give into the darkness and sink in for the long haul. I have to say I understand the desire to do that sometimes. The darkness can be tempting.. because you are alone there... and the fight is over.

It's always the same thing with everyone that gets them into and through recovery... LOVE... Love is a powerful thing.. a wonderous thing.. a thing we all want.

A loved one will nurse us through a difficult surgery and assure us that it will get better... A loved one will let you know that you're in danger of losing everything.. and get you into recovery.. a loved one will hold your hand when you are just sure you don't have another meeting, appointment, session in you.. and tell you that you do... and guess what???? You do.

Be it a recovery from a surgery... an addiction.. a loss... love is what will get us through everytime..

And you are loved.... very much...
