I was lost in a dark abyss, a slave to the deadly kiss, a poison that numbed my pain, but also drained my life away. I tried to break free from its hold, but it was stronger than my soul. It dragged me deeper into the hell and made me forget who I was. Then I saw a glimpse of light, the spark of hope in the night, a voice that called me by my name and told me that I could change. I followed that voice to the shore where I found an open door, a place where I could heal and grow and learn to let go of my woe. I met people who understood, who had been where I had once stood, who shared these stories and their strength and helped me find my way. I also found a new power, a force that made me flower, a love that filled my heart and mind and made me see the beauty of life. I realized that I was not alone, that I had a purpose and a home, that I had a chance to start anew and become the person that I once knew. I know that recovery is not easy, that there will be challenges and temptations, but I also know that I have the tools and the support to overcome any obstacle. I'm grateful for my journey, for the lessons and the gifts, for the opportunity and the responsibility to live a meaningful and fulfilling life. Don't forget to subscribe if you enjoyed this podcast.
