Hello all,

It has been a while since ive been here so i came to give charlie a greeting and now im saying good afternoon to everyone!!!!!

I am still doing very well and staying clean. I just celebrated my 5yr recovery b-day on aug,31,2008. It is an amazing feeling.

I never thought there would be 1 day let alone five years....WOW......

Although i cannot take one ounce of credit by any means.....All the praise goes to my higher power, PERIOD. I could not have done any of this recovery on my own will & merits.....i know where that thinking got me in the first place and i dont like it.

So for anyone out there that thinks its an impossible journey and recovery isn't possible.....well im here to say IT IS POSSIBLE, IT IS ATTAINABLE & IT IS LOVING!!!!!!

I wish anyone who is to read this many wonderful blessings in your recovery journey as well. I pray a very happy safe 24 for you. If you havent experienced your first 24 yet....dont loose heart because the amazing thing is you get a new 24 to begin again.

Much love to everyone and many blessings

Your friend in recovery.............thereishope

Thank you for your kind words. CONGRATS!

Thank you very much for all your words of recovery. By my higher power I have been clean for three years and my life is truly blessed today. Many heartfelt blessings to you, Linda
