Don't Quit
When things go wrong as they sometimes will,
When the road you're trudging seems all up hill, When the funds are low and the debts are high And you want to smile, but you have to sigh, When care is pressing you down a bit, Rest if you must, but don't you quit.
Life is strange with its twists and turns.
As every one of us sometimes learns, And many a failure turns about
When he might have won had he stuck it out;
Don't give up though the pace seems slow--You may succeed with another blow, Success Is fallure turned inside out--The silver tint of the clouds of doubt, And you never can tell how close you are, It may be near when it seems so far;
So stick to the fight when you're hardest hit--
It's when things seem worst that you must not quit.
For all the sad words of tongue or pen;
The saddest are these: "It might have been."

Debt collectors calling

Embarrassed friends
In laws (now ex) that hated me
Parents that didn't tr7st me
Someone read me "The Promises" and at first I had no clue what was said, or why it was read to me. So I was told to read them daily and if i needed a dictionary to get one to help with comprehension.
Life is still full of lows, and highs and there are days I enjoy the middle. Today I have the tools to cope and make better decisions (i still make a few bad ones). It has come working a program of recovery one day at a time.
