I love the honesty integrity and kindness you use in your writing. I don’t know if I could bare my soul as you have. I know that from reading your words I have learned so much. I am sure by doing this you have and will help others to understand and appreciate what recovery means and how it makes life make sense. I thank you for doing this!
Good question, Di. Recovering feels like living to me -- an ongoing, evolving process. And 'recovered,' sounds a little like 'lived.' As in, 'good job, well done. What next?' I think that's a dangerous feeling.
At the same time, as nice as it is, I don't want living to look exactly the way it does now forever. So maybe the common denominator is change...? As in, I'm changing, growing, no longer stuck and not, in fact, smoking crack. Plus, if it's really all about ch-ch-change, I could have picked a better song for this post.

Your comments never fail to make my day and more. Thanks for your unwavering kindness.
Does the road to recovery end? Is there a moment of « recovered »?
Just wondering how you see that. Xx
