Oh boy, it’s been a wild ride so far.
It’s been forever since I posted anything, and I’m so happy to start blogging about recovery again today.
This morning I think I have finally found the meaning of surrender. Admitting complete defeat. Complete defeat! Something so unnatural for us to do. But it is necessary.
In admitting complete defeat, we win this battle. The war is never over, but we have the power to win each daily battle by beginning the day admitting defeat. So long as I do this, I will keep the enemy, my addiction and the demons that surround it, at bay.
My addiction wants a fight, as do the demons that exploit every worst part of addiction, and in not providing one…in surrendering, I win, with God’s help. I win.
Don’t fight it. Don’t give into a losing battle. Surrender. Win.
"When I use my past becomes my future."
Well everyone, I’ve been gone for a long time! I just got back from treatment again, and I’m feeling wonderful! So much to be thankful for this Thanksgiving! It’s a great day to be clean!
