My Favorite Titles

My three favorite titles:

"Daughter of God"

"Mama"

"Recovering Addict"

These are the three titles that I feel the very most honored to hold.

I cannot adequately express in words how much JOY I get from talking to people about addiction recovery.

I LOVE addicts.

I find myself in no more holy places than when I am in a room with recovering addicts.

Recovering addicts are absolutely the most meek, submissive, broken hearted children of God I have ever known.

Recovering addicts who are committed to following the desires which God puts on their hearts - THOSE are my people.

I remember the actual physical feeling I had when I realized I was an addict.

There was no shame.

There was a physical JOY.

There was such a hope that enveloped me.

I KNEW that I could recover.

I KNEW that there were programs for ME to get better, and then to be able to help others also.

I was so relieved.

I love the joy that feels my soul when I talk about addiction and recovery from those things that have taken away our agency.

There is zero shame in addiction.

In fact, as I have said before, I fully believe everyone is an addict in some way!

There is a place for everyone here.

There is hope and love and meaningful lessons for everyone here.
