Welcome to my blog. I hope you enjoy my articles whether you are a believer or not. I write of my own personal experience and my own beliefs and not being keen on internet arguments have no comments section. You are very welcome to contact me with your thoughts, but if it is an argument you are seeking I most likely will not respond.
No. my purpose is more to reach out to people who may share similar experiences with hope and comfort - so if you are one of those people I would be delighted to ear from you.
Part one of my journey into recovery from alcohol and drug addiction.
It is hard to describe the darkness from within the midst of it. While actively enjoying alcoholism it seems light, bright, an utter delight. People looking on, however, shake their heads, dismayed. They are confused by the lies, pissed off at the irresponsible behaviour, and horrified at the neglect and abuse of the children.
Why has it been so hard for me to let go and forgive? I was stuck in unforgiveness so long it was like a warm comfortable blanket. An old smelly blanket. A blanket that had become crusted into my skin over the years. I was determined not to give it up. I tried pretending it wasn’t there, but I wasn’t fooling anybody – especially not Jesus who sees EVERYTHING.
