I did not know this about you. My admiration of you has become even more strengthened.

An excellent post. This is one of the most rewarding programs in this country. I don't mean your particular one, I don't know what or where it was, but the whole concept. It has been the greatest joy of my life to work with people at all levels of recovery from addiction or some sort of hell on earth. To see one make some forward movement is such a joy. I am so glad you did that and are continuing to grow forward. Be blessed.

dsm - I'm glad you took that walk. There is so much in you to share with especially to the kids you teach. I know of many who would never admit and take that walk.

I can only imagine what it would be like. I can only sense what you were feeling. I am grateful that I never had to take a walk such as yours

I have known so many people who have made that walk, and so many more who should.
Thank you for writing this.

Long Walk Indeed
I am sure that was one of the most difficult walks to make however apparently you made that walk and staying on course. That is great! That was an excellent personal life experience that all can learn from; the people who have scars from life are the ones I would want on my team. Great job!
