Life is not a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty, and well preserved body, but rather to skid in broadside, thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and loudly proclaiming---WOW-What a ride!"
Ha! Yes, what a ride it has been. I certainly did not slide off a rainbow to get where I am today. I had no idea what kind of twists and turns my life was going take...as we all do.
Great career, check. Marriage, check. Beautiful children (ex husband's), check. House, check. blah blah blah blah. Ego, check. Addiction, check.
I thought Ego was a good thing. Confident in one's self...Not. I felt as though I had everything, however I had nothing. It didn't take me long at all to lose it either. Thank you, Addiction.
My favorite quote, "There is no such thing as coincidence, it is just God being Anonymous". I took a long and very dramatic fall...back into reality. Back into the important things in life. God, spirituality, family, friends. Without God I am nothing. Nothing is never where I want to be again.
I am on a lovely and guided path of Recovery, thanks to My Higher Power, and am thankful for the thoroughly used up, totally worn out body that I have. It puts me back in my place.
