What Can We Do?
So many of you have shared your support on my blog - thank you so much! Andrew L. asked, "What can we do to help support you in your journey? We want to help, but only if it is meaningful to you." There are many things people can do in support - They can spread the word about recovery. They can help to share positive experiences to reduce the negative stigma associated with the disease. They can help to educate people about the disease, as it is an illness, not a character flaw. They can volunteer services to help others who are in recovery. Personally, just knowing people like you, Andrew, have expressed your support, is a great support to me as I walk!
Pedestrian Philosophy for today: We go through life much like human pencils, writing our own life stories. We can choose to thoughtfully express ourselves or scribble nonsense. That is the same as the difference between using and sobriety.
