At this moment

Published

At this exact moment 365 days ago I was praying to god to change my life or let me die because I couldn't live the life I was anymore. Exactly 15 hours ffrom this moment 365 days ago I will be fired and will start my journey to a life I couldn't have fathomed and couldn't be more greatful for.

365 minus two days ago I will tell my family about what I have done and will experience the first hands being reached out to pick me up. I will experience more love than I have ever known.

365 days ago minus weeks and then months I will find value in myself as a person and start to receive and give love and know I am worthy of both. I will discover AA, laughter and joy will return to me. I will see the world as I havnt before.

365 days ago at this exact moment I was crying because I had no hope, at this exact moment I am crying because I have hope. How could life be this wonderful?
