Choices

July 2, 2019

Everyday I make a choice: To live or to die. To use or not to use. To surrender or to take back my self will. To recover or to return to active addiction.

If I am not working on my recovery and applying spiritual principles such as honesty, openmindedness, willingness, and humility, I am working on my relapse.

There is no wiggle room.

Using dreams, cravings, stress, overwhelming emotions have, do and will happen.

But I always have a choice – to pick up or not.

Today, I choose recovery. I choose life.

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.
