To Dream

June 9, 2019

12 days clean and 54 days smoke free.

Lost dreams awaken, new possibilities arise.

I am fortunate in that I didn’t lose a lot of years to my drug of choice – yet.

I must remain vilagent.

But I did stop dreaming, culminating in that dark night when I decided dying was my only hope of escape.

I did lose time with those who love me.

I did stop planning and dreaming for the future.

I now look forward to the future and dare to dream again. Starting today, I’ll do whatever I can to realize my dreams.

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.
