Alive

July 22, 2019

Today was one of those days I am grateful to be alive.

Even though I’m not feeling the greatest, the flowers were more brilliant, the sky more blue, the breeze more refreshing.

Although I am scared to go to Bellwood, my emotions do not rule me today. I am just letting them be, aware they are there and that is all.

The song ‘Alive’ by Edwin popped into my head today, and I’m posting these lines for you as I say good night:

Ain’t it good to breathe the air?

Another spin around the sun.

On this speck of light in the universe.

A little piece of love’s in everyone.

I left the hateful rhetoric of Facebook to come here to carry a message of hope and healing I'm in recovery from addiction and rebuilding a life filled with purpose and creativity. Whether I'm playing the piano, baking, gardening, or knitting, I’ve found healing in the simple, meaningful moments. Buzz Kill Diaries is where I share honest reflections on recovery - one day at a time.
