”He who has health has hope; and he who has hope, has everything.”
Arabian proverb

My
new found hope may come from within, but it is strengthened and maintained
through faith in my Higher Power. I am learning in my humility that I will
only achieve truly great and profound things through the love, faith and
patience that the God of my understanding can provide. Turning over my life
and my will, surrendering myself to this unseen force is the only way for me
to live the life I was meant to have.
By
God’s grace I am on this planet and I believe there is a specific purpose for
my life even if I have not yet recognized it. But I have confidence that
through His wisdom I can achieve all that serves His purpose.
I
am working through the steps of the program to remove the obstacles to my
connection with my Higher Power. In doing so I am transforming myself to be
able to better serve Him. I am open in my prayer and meditation to the
instruction of where to put forth my energies. I am being reborn into the
person I was meant to be as I gradually give away my defects of character.

Affirmation
I
can feel the change from within. I am open to the guidance of my Higher Power
and the true path I am meant to follow.

These thoughts are part of my personal journal - reflections of where I am and have been in my recovery, but also where I want to be. My words come from my heart, and moments of clarity when I am best connected with my Higher Power. May God grant you serenity in reviewing my humble beginnings and my continuing path of recovery.
Book Sales
My first print run of 100 copies sold out, but I have had a second printing of an additional 250 copies done this year. So more are available, now at a cost of $20 CAD. My second book, Twelve Steps for Everyday Living, is now available for purchase for $15 CAD. It is my attempt, based on my experience and those who've been a part of my recovery journey, to transform the 12 Steps into a tool for anyone to use to navigate the challenges and trials of life.

Review it? Do you have a copy and enjoy what you have read? Can you help me promote it by leaving a good review at Goodreads (https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/21939460-lean-on-me)? Thanks for your support.
In other news, after a long debate and some peer pressure, I have started a second blog, along the same vein as Lean on Me, but in my second language. You can check it out here - Tomber dans l'appui.
