As addicts we need to totally change our lives, in order to be free of addictions and the temptations to reuse. It is my belief that God created us, and that addiction is not a surprise to Him.

Sometimes
Sometimes,when the wind blows right,you can see between the sheer, and the solid. It is in between there,where you are in the presence of Love. That deep abiding joy,when everything is ok,and you know you are free.Despite what you see. That place in time,where you are eternal,and nothing in this momentcan intrude with its garbage. ThereContinue reading “Sometimes”
Rise Up and Walk
Wellness Poem by Chris Bunton Rise up and walk;when life’s got you down. Rise up and walk;your way around town. When depression sets in;and you only see the end.Rise up and walk. A little here. A little there.Around the block;or down a beautiful trail.Rise up and walk. If you’re sick; pray and believe.Then, rise up andContinue reading “Rise Up and Walk”

If we all do our thing,how great that would be. God will guide us,if we ask Him too. He will give us a place;to do what weContinue reading “Your Own Thing”

Why Do We Hate Work?
A Poem by Chris Bunton I would say that the vast majority of us do not hate work. We were created for a purpose. We hate having a job, working ourselves to death for people who don’t care about us, and for nothing other than money. We hate not fulfilling our purpose. We hate gettingContinue reading “Why Do We Hate Work?”
