| That, without a doubt, is one of the most endearing tributes to Recovery that I have ever heard. I love it. I hope you have the yard/land/area to make this dream come true.
I'm a renter in a small apt so something like that is out of the question. But I do have something that I have been able to watch grow and to nurture as well. I've shared this before, but when I was a few months into my Recovery, I wanted to get a kitten. I thought that I was now responsible enough to take care of one. I went to pick one out from a friend of a friend who's cat had kittens that were ready for adoption. After I picked out the fuzzball I wanted, on my way out the door, I asked the woman if she remembered the date the kittens were born. She went into the kitchen and checked her calendar and much to my surprise, she said July 25. . . he was born on the day I was reborn! So me and my cat have grown together. We both have our quirks, our unique characteristics that make us our own individuals.
I hope you are able to find the perfect tree to represent your rebirth. God Bless you Hon.
Hugs,
Judy
