Thankful

Becoming clean is a beautiful demonstration of realizing God's salvation in a deeply personal and incredibly personal way. Getting clean is the price of admission to a program that teaches one her weaknesses, tragedies, and desperate need for a Savior.

Seven months and twenty five days ago I started my journey of recovery. I stopped living in denial and started learning how to make living amends for what I had done.

I am thankful for sobriety and the many people who have helped (and continue to help) me achieve it.

Most importantly, I am thankful to God for enabling me to break the terrible cycle of addiction. Ultimately is was only through HIM that I was restored to sanity.

Sanity and sobriety are two things I am thankful for every single day.
