THIS IS HOW I SEE LIFE OUT THERE PART 2 WILL GIVE MY VIEW ON RECOVERY!
Somewhere out there an addict ius sticking a needle in their arm... Their eyes are rolling back in their head. They fall to the floor.... They will NEVER get up again.
Somewhere out there an alcoholic is taking his last drink... His liver is shutting down... He will NEVER leave thehospital again... His family will watch him die.
Somewhere out there another addict is taking a hit off their crack/speed pipe... Their heart is racingf... Their heart is about to burst...This is how their life will end.
Somewhere out there an addict/alcoholicis contemplating suicide... He/She just knows life will never change.. This is all He/She knows or expects out of life...This seems the only way out!
Somewhere out there another family is being torn apart...Children are being taken... Spouses lost... All because of this disease
Somewhere out there an old woman hits the streets trying to sell her broken body... Hoping she will get enough for another fix... She wonders if she will make it thru another day.
Somewhere out therea young girl maybe 12 or 13 has hit the streets for the first time... She has no clue about life,She has been told this is what love is.
Somewhere oiut therea young boy sees his big brother making money on the street corner... He want to be just like him.
Somewhere out there a boy sees his mother being beaten for not bringing home enough dope money... He is learning how to treat women.
Somewhere out there a girlwatches her mother being beaten because she doesn't want to seel the last of her foodstamps for drugs or alcohol...she is learning how women are treated.
Somewhere out there a young boy takes a bullet that was meant for someone else... This is partof the life.
Somewhere out thereanother family is being shattered... lives broken...Taken... Sometimes in a flah of an instant and sometimes slowly... BUT lives ARE BEING TAKEN BY THIS DISEASE!!! These peopl have never heard of AA/NA/CA... They may never get the chance to attend a meeting or to find out that peace and joy are really out there!
So next time you are in a meeting and they say a moment of silence for those that still suffer ... REALLY take a moment... then THANK GOD FOR TODAY! and then really pray for someone who still suffers... I KNOW SOMEONE PRAYED ME IN!!!

I'm trying to exercise daily. I was doing fairly well until I sprained my ankle 2 weeks ago but now I'm getting back on the horse. Today I walked over a mile with my arm weights that are about 22lbs total. I was out of shape and it was hard on my arms. I also did my 30 situps. I'm also going to drink a lot of water and try to eat healthy. I do tend to have a sweet tooth but I'm cutting...
