13 Years Today! Recovery is my Lucky Charm..🍀🍀

Recovery Birthday🎂🧁 #13

Lucky #13 🍀

Ironic how my “Rebirth” of Life falls on St. Patrick's Day!🍀 

What a year of Redirection, Renewal, Revival, Rerouting, Researching, and Yes, Amazing Recovery!

Over these past 13 years…..

The Rebirth of Self has been challenging at times, but most certainly worth every growing pain I have felt.

I have gratefully learned in my own Pursuit of Recovery that drug and alcohol abuse were but a short term painful solution to MY unresolved pain, shame, guilt, and unresolved trauma.

The GIFT I was given was the Courage💪🏻to look in the mirror🪞and see not only what needed changing, but how to and what to do for this change. 

I am GRATEFUL every morning when I open my eyes and realize I have another opportunity to seize the day and LIVE.

Know the difference between just surviving and truly thriving!

What have been my biggest takeaways these past 365 days?  

Gosh, where to begin?

Consistency with my word✅ and my work📚

Relationships with Family, Friends, and Colleagues

Education🤓and Commitment💯

Acceptance and Acknowledgement

Time⏰and Healing❤️‍🩹

Empowerment and Persistence

You see, we ALL can CREATE 🌻a life worth living.   

Recovery has given me the opportunity to do LIFE!

God 🙏🏻has continued to place people, places and things in my LIFE to help me Grow🌹🌼.

Whether we are recharging or relaxing, always remember self love and enjoy finding your purpose in this daily adventure we call LIFE.

Thank you, ♥️Amy C.
