The Road To Recovery

Recovery: To get back something that has been lost or stolen. Often we find ourselves in the predicament of letting go of our old life and accepting our new one. It's hard to get that monkey off our backs called the night life, friends who still smoke weed, drink all day everyday, cheat on their partners, don't pay their bills or still live at home with their mama. We seem to think that we have lost something by not hanging out with these dead beats! I mean now you are living your life right, going to church, staying out of the clubs, no more lying or cheating, and we now have our priorities together. But, it's something about our past that tries to hold us back and prevent us from being happy and having our blessings. Sometimes, what's holding us back is ourselves or friends and families members that liked us better when we were living our lives without purpose. The road to recovery is one that has many twist and turns, and hills and mountains to climb. In order to really let go of our past and head to that road call recovery we have to let go of that dead weight called friends and family members who don't want you to succeed, ex's who keep poppin up trying to mess up our blessings from God. The road to recovery can be long , hard, and sometimes lonely but if we have a good support system and lean on the Lord we will come through it on top and with a renewed spirit and a new outlook on life.
