I would like to thank all of you who sent Christmass cards and care packages to us at the Miricales in Progress recovery house. Your support ment so mutch to all of us. As Christmass aproched I was feeling so alone and was sarting to feel aleinanted for the rest of the world. Most of my familey and friends are dead. I can count the rest on one hand. I was seriously depressed. Then one day the card came and the next day they stared pouring in. And it continued more and more. I recieved over 100 cards. I haven't had this many all my life. You don't know me .....but you love me. Unconditionaly and without reason. Thank you. Thank you for showing me people do care, that the spirit of Christmass isn't lost and beat down by materalism and corporations feeding off people's wallets and putting people in dept. Thank you for be willing to do for me what I can't do for myself....love me. You prove the fact that who we are esotericly is not what most of socitey sterotypes as. Your love and kindness has rained down apon me. It has flooded around me and drowned out my sorrows. And now the cards have stoped and tide is receiding. But my pain is washed away and I am at .....Peace.
I was hoping to see a few of you guys show up here, we need you here as much as you need us together we do this .
This place, these brothers and sisters here have given me so much strength I can't even describe the power, all i can say is since i've joined this site after relapsing I have not wanted to use but only a few times, its given me something to think about and come back to after a hard day and a place to go and share my new freedom with others.
My day often starts here also, it keeps me in touch and centered with where i'm at in my life today and that recovery from a seemingly hopeless situation, here I find hope and strength.
Glad so very glad that others were able to help you thru treatment, get on with your new life we are all here for YOU.
