Perseverance

May 17, 2019

“Perseverance is more prevailing than violence; and many things which cannot be overcome when they are together, yield themselves up when taken little by little.”

Every single thought we have affects our lives.

For me, it was easier to be negative, to criticize, to tear down to make myself feel better. One could say I was addicted to negativity.

But every thought has an effect, and I do not have the time nor energy for a negative thought.

On my journey to recovery I will have many thoughts, and it is vital I take one thought at a time to understand the motivation behind it, to slow down, so as to not become overwhelmed.

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.
