Thank you everyone for the feedback on this thread. I love that you all post here.

I am so grateful that the rhythm of my life, of my days, is changing smoothly. I used to be so fearful of change and so negative about change. Now, I feel like the passenger and god is driving and it's the best feeling in the world.

I am so grateful for the willingness to be authentically present.
I am grateful for the folks [my family in recovery] who seek me out and ask me to share my ESH with them. They help me so much more than I know how to verbalize.
