Living in the possibilities and pursuing purpose.
Considering addiction steals and destroys someone lost in the cycle, we forget how the tentacles of destruction reach family and friends. Evil is never satisfied with one. It thirsts for the souls of many. To those attached to addiction, consider this a reminder that you are not alone.
You can lose yourself by asking, “What did I do wrong?” You will evaporate chasing addiction further into itself.
You can only be the David of your own life. Satan is going to come at you through their addiction, but he’s coming at you for you. Don’t be so immersed in your desire to save your child that you forget yourself.
I suppose your heart is a bit hardened to the possibilities as you accept their choices and the outcomes of chronic substance use- jail, treatment, or death.
There’s been little conversation about the dilemma of grief in passing and grieving the living. Those hurting through loss need time for healing. They deserve the space and to allow the flow of emotion. I keep my turbulence to myself.
Watching and living in addiction has been one of the most significant challenges of my life. It encouraged my impossible obsession -to save someone against their will and try to control something I could never control.
Be your own warrior who breaks free from something meant to harm you, silent your spirit, or intrude on what should be healthy, clear, and confident living.
When the bad got worse and everyone departed, I stood firm. I’m not confident I was wanted, though. The more I stayed, the more despised I became. Eventually, I left you to do what you wanted to do.
..all the words in the world can’t fix this.
Being right in our feelings is not being righteous to God.

I'm someone who has always had a deep passion for literature and writing. From a young age, I've been captivated by the power of words and the way they can transport us to different worlds, open our minds to new ideas, and connect us with people and experiences that are distant from our own. Whether it's immersing myself in a classic novel, jotting down my thoughts in a journal, or crafting my own creative stories, writing and literature have always been an essential part of my life. I'm excited to continue exploring this rich and rewarding field, and to share my thoughts and insights with others who share my love for all things literary.
Grace for Today. Hope for Tomorrow.
