has it been...?
Posted On 10/04/2008 03:53:53 by lovelife

Wow.

A year has gone by...its amazing to think back just a year and remember the emotional unhealthy mess I was.  Im so busy now it took  a night fretting over exams to get up and write a blog.  I mean my concern now is EXAMS and not getting through the day sick and hung over.  The days were torture from the mind numbing blahness of it all.  God (I laugh) I remember getting all excited on a Friday night because I was going to drink margaritas until I passed out watching the same movie over and over...it didnt matter I would never remember it anyway.  Now my fridays are filled with laughter love my life.  My days are filled with a life so full of The Promises...they really do come true.

Something inside me has changed so much.  Perhaps it is this next year to find out what.  It is something right now I simply can not describe.  I will say this...I no longer rest in the laurels.  I know to much.  Things are so different now that I am sober.  I had no idea I was capable of healthy coping mechanisms.  I never knew I was as strong as I am.  I never thought I could go back to school full time, work and be able to live a great life and take care of my kids.  But it is all happening.  It is real. Dreams really do come true.

Peace

Lisa

Lisa -
     I believe the change is one of realization. You said it, right out of the promises: "
We will suddenly realize that God is doing for us what we could not do for ourselves."
     Those times when you find yourself the calm in the midst of the storm. Plans and things that used to fall apart now falling into place almost effortlessly. Open doors where you saw no door before. The list goes on.
    To you my friend, I wish a happy, joyus and free birthday.
YFIR,
Dennis
