I love your writing! Reading it feels like drifting down a river in a nice, comfortable boat. One word in front the next in such an eloquent, vulnerable, honest, and authentic way.
From one recovering mess to another, your words hit my bones to shiver.
So many parallels in this life we've crawled through.
Men +booze+drugs=a perfect oblivion.
Interesting that I had ocd growing up because I had to be the adult in my family and kept my shit neat and tidy so no one would have to look inside, including myself. But in my sobriety, I've given myself the leisure of not being the neat freak, like I can finally be the little girl I never was. It's liberating.
I look forward in reading more from you and trudging this path to happy destiny as they say in our 12 steps. Here's something from my ether....
Thank you so, so much! It never ceases to amaze me how many women have eerily similar stories. Sharing them is the most powerful of victories. Happy to connect with you!
This is wonderful! A great reflection on all the awakenings that sobriety brings us. Beautifully written. Thank you so much for this.
I'm reminded that "Our liquor was but a symptom. We had to get down to causes and conditions." That's the most wondrous part of sobriety to me. Facing those closet doors, so to speak.

Thank you so much ☺️
“Do not remember the former things,
Nor consider the things of old.
Behold, I will do a NEW thing,
Now it shall spring forth;
Shall you not know it?
I will even make a road in the wilderness
AND rivers in the desert.”
;) ❤️
This on repeat. Love you girl. ❤️❤️❤️
I love this and relate so much.
Thank you so much for reading!
Absolutely stunning writing.
Thank you, Elissa. Wow. You’ve made my day.
So, so good.
Thank you, Kaitlyn!
