Hope & Change
A Dutch proverb wisely advises, "Think before acting; and whilst acting, still think." Life is full of decisions, some impulsive and others carefully planned.
Our words and actions carry weight, impacting how others perceive us and how we see ourselves.
Growing up in a functional-dysfunctional home, I faced challenges that shaped my journey through poverty, bullying, addiction, and recovery. Despite overcoming these obstacles, self-doubt and feelings of inadequacy persist. Yet, I hold onto hope, knowing that change is possible.
In times of uncertainty, remember the wisdom of the African proverb: "Only a fool tests the depth of a river with both feet." Let's embrace the message echoed in 12-Step Programs: "Think, Think, Think."
People matter, and with resilience, recovery becomes achievable.
Peace & love to all
