Eternal optimists! Life is a whammy really. I am becoming cynical. Hate that....maybe, it is just realistic.
I KNOW I used to be black and white! Statistics were for others. All along I have shared my ES&H from where I am today. That is all I know - today, this moment.
I can't be cynical - there is too much joy and beauty in the world. I am realistic about addiction, but will always remain hopeful for each and every addict I know.
