Speak Up

Today is March 26th 2012, a day that will live with me for the rest of my life because it's the first time since i have been truly clean and sober and had the chance to sit down and have a normal celebration of what real life, without drugs and alcohol, have to offer!!! I have all my family celebrating this day of God given second chances and glory with me!!! MY son, my nieces, my sister, my mom, and my brother in law! Without these certain people in my life, i would not have had the strength to love myself enough to change to want to be a better father, son, uncle, and brother.! I DID learn the tools necessary to live a good life, and i use them everyday! I will forever be in gratitude for the many blessings that my higher power has given to me!!! AND, my heart pours out for those who suffer everyday with this thing called "Meth"! I pray that those who struggle can find real strength in my words and to know that there is hope out there! It is a long road! A long JOURNEY that i had to walk step by step, one day at a time!!! There is no more darkness in my life, just llight of love and i can not hold on to it, for it is a gift that we all deserve to have! Forgiveness, determination, and faith, and with that i will write to help others! I will be responsible and share the gift that i was given LOVE, and COMPASSION!!!!!! Be strong and it will get better!
