Three A Days

I have to write every day. It is how I get a lot of the little things off my mind. I didn’t write and I missed a meeting on Monday. I was irritated. I was thinking, I can find a ride from The Park to meetings in Leonardtown. But can’t find a ride from LovevilleContinue reading “Three A Days”

My Reminder

Every morning when I wake up and as I’m starting my day. I thank Jehovah I don’t have to use today. For so long I was asking God to help me get through the day and find money to get well. It is so allaying to know that I don’t have to manipulate every interactionContinue reading “My Reminder”

Day by Day

FEELINGS

This is. Indescribable. Incomprehensible. Truly alien in nature. But with a feeling so. Effortless. Bound by beauty. Physical. Intellectual. Incredible. Survived so many of life’s scenarios.
