Our Gift
 
As the holidays roll around people are spending money on things to give others that they may or may not like. I love Christmas, it is my favorite season of the year. I used to think how great it would be if Christmas were year round, people are nicer, the air is crispy, there is music playing everywhere. I discovered it is Christmas every day. Each morning I am given a gift, wrapped in that gift is my life. I can do as I please for the day with my gift. Will I take care of my gift, or will I just destroy it? It is all my choice. Each day that I choose not to do drugs I have chosen to take care of my gift. Everyone has a different perception to the word success. To some it is the amount of money they make, to others it is the house they live in or the car they drive. To me, a clean day is a great success! Let’s all choose to take care of our gift and make it Christmas all year round! I wish you all a Mele Kalikimaka me ka Hau'oli Makahiki Hou!

What a beautiful message to share Kolina, Merry Christmas to you!

Sobriety is God's gift to me. What I choose to do with it is my gift to God.
