Heart Of An Addict

“Forgive yourself for having an innocent heart that made you trust the wrong people. Forgive yourself for having a destructive heart that made you into someone you weren’t proud of. Forgive yourself for having a sensitive heart that caused you to cut off some relationships that it couldn’t handle. Forgive yourself for having a wanting heart that didn’t know when to stop taking and taking and taking until the giving was forgotten. Forgive yourself for all the hearts you had and trust that you have the courage and caringness to make your heart into something pure and beautiful. Forgive yourself and say, “I’m sorry for all the pain it took to change you, my sweet, sweetheart.””

“Be the first-class version of yourself rather than the second-class version of someone else.”

“When your past has power over the present and you can’t get away from the past - you are being attacked by your own mind. This is your horror ghost.”

My brain, having a meltdown like a toddler: I just can’t do it! I don’t want to !! I can’t!!
