Playing it By Heart by Melody Beattie is a bit of a biography or story of her life and it helped me understand a lot. She was an addict, the kind who robbed drug stores in the middle of the night, and her story shares so much about addiction, codependency and struggling with the loss of her son. As depressing as that sounds, it`s very uplifting because she rises above her problems and moves forward, and has always been a huge inspiration to me.
