I don't mean to sound self righteuos or to simplistic but I am sitting here watching a program on VH1 about AIDS. I can't help but think to myself, things could always be worse for me. I have a disease, addiction. Although I will always be an addict, it is not a death sentence. I know that at times it feels like it. I've been there more then once. But it's not, and if we can make it through the nasty withdrawals, and mental torment, we can come out of it stronger. I love the the saying, "What doesn't kill us makes us stronger". Sometimes I have to tell myself that over and over. I hope everyone that is clean if it be for one day or one year, knows how strong they are and how much stronger they will get day by day.
Yes mam, So lets not let it kill us, and become stronger than ever.
