Scattered Pink

<p><span style=color: rgba(40 60 70 1)>During my active addiction I thought I was going to die and I accepted that. It sounds morbid but it was where I was in life. I was in love with heroin and the dysfunctional relationship I had with it. Being present in my everyday life was very difficult. Using drugs for the first time at the age of 12 I was just trying to fit in and have fun. Then there was heroin. The crimes I would commit and the hurt I would cause the people I loved never crossed my mind in pursuit of that drug. It didn't matter. I was in love the first time it was in my body. But when I finally stayed in recovery magic truly happened. The path and journey of my life were changed completely. I am a woman in long-term recovery from drug addiction. What that means for me is that I have been drug and alcohol-free since May 27 2007. Learning about my soul and truly who I am has been difficult scary beautiful and amazing. Being able to wake up every day and walk in my purpose is priceless. I want the same for you.</span></p>
