"This was such a beautiful truth for me in my recovery."- Martha A. "This is very beautiful. I believe in this. Something you struggled with after you have rose from it, may be used for your own good or to help others. For me, it was self-medicating or numbing in and out of addiction a lot of my life. Looking for love in all the wrong places, putting my worth in others pockets, being hurt and rejected over and over but finally coming to myself. God has loved me the whole time, I just had to love myself so I could believe I'm enough and worthy of being loved. This journey has shown me that I love myself and people. Even the smallest act of kindness is never wasted. I will shine my light of hope for others. We are all enough. Always. - Jenny S.
