This is an account of my journey, detailing the moments of a life free from nicotine and alcohol. I've found it helpful to document the ideas and events along the way to always remember where I came from and where I am heading. This will help me stay in the present moment and free from active addiction. I also hope that this blog can be used to inspire and benefit those who are also seeking refuge from their addictions.

A Message to End Suffering
We should try to be thankful every day we "get to" be here on earth. I've said it before. I'm not too religious, but I've learned to do a "thankful" prayer at the beginning and end of each day.
Come to think of it, I do it when I eat, when I feel emotionally elated, when I feel inspired or sad. I do it when a friend is in need or when I am feeling empathy for all the pain I went through with my addictions.
It's really helped me be in the "now", and to think of all the positive things life has to offer over all the negative that constantly can riddle our brains.
I'm not here to push prayer onto anyone. I'm here to push compassion, thankfulness and learning to close the door on those things that offer us no love. I'm here to help everyone find what they need to do to be free from what ails us. This was the message from those who blazed the trail before me. This is the message of self-love, self-worth and self-peace.
This is a message to help end suffering
