Woman in Texas

“How could I ever express my eternal gratitude to you for your support, guidance and understanding. This past weekend was a life changing experience for me. I can only speak for myself and tell you that you had opened my eyes to a life that I thought I would never have. You gave me the tools to start healing and recovering. I have a long road ahead of me, making amends with my past, forgiving my present and rebuilding my future.

As hard and painful as it was, I had grown in to a better person, to have been seen through the eyes of compassion and not judgement was something that I had never experienced before. Thank you for listening, for educating me and for being honest with me, for letting me see things as they where and not as I thought or imagined them to be.

I can see now that I have a chance of a better and healthier life. I am doing all I can to get that life that I so much yearned, and even when there were times when I wished I could put it all back and live in the life that I had and not feel this pain, it was not an honest life. You guided me in the direction that I needed to be, I am taking small steps, using the tools and allowing God to guide me and stop questioning and blaming everything on myself.

Saying thank you would never be enough, you saved me from myself, you opened my eyes to see the person that I am, that I do deserve all the things that I have denied myself through the years and I can say that today I don't see that glass half empty, I see it half full.

You were the light that [my husband] needed at his darkest moment, and with your help and his work and determination, [my husband] may be freed from his addiction and live the life that he so deserves. That we both deserve.”  ~SW
