In my addictive days, I couldn’t
wait to get off work so that I could have
a beer. That’s what got me through the
day, knowing that I had a drink waiting
for me. That’s what I worked for. Not
to pay my bills, but to have money to
drink on or buy drugs with.
I would do just about anything to
get a drink. When I had no money, I
would ask someone to borrow money.
If they said no, I would get angry with
them. I would even hate them
sometimes. Who needs them anyway.
Congratulations to Aaron Green
on your third-place trophy in your
motorcycle race! Your first race! Wow,
I am so proud of you! Tweak that puppy
up and you will be coming in first in
no time!
Love you, Auntie Bun

I *
It didn’t matter to me the reason they
said no, even if they had no money to
lend. I looked forward to that high
because when I was on that level, I had
no fears or cares at all.
Today, I realize that I was running
from those fears and didn’t want to care
about anything or anyone, even myself.
All that mattered to me, and all I cared
about, was that high. It didn’t matter
who I hurt or how I hurt them, as long
as I got to that level.
But today I have a different outlook
on life because I know that even my
lowest low, no matter the reason, is
better than my highest high in my days
as an addict. Today, I know that no
matter how low I get, I know I can go
to bed and not wake up sick. That is
enough for me.
I can be proud of who I am. Today,
I can honestly say that I love myself.
And that feeling of loving myself is a
better high than any drug could ever
bring me.
