Like so much of Paris - the Eiffel Tower is a tourism cliche until one experiences it in person. The scale of it is incomprehensible. Totally worth pulling on my big boy pants to to be one of many in a crowd. Conquering - just for a moment - a paralyzing fear of heights to reach the summit was huge. I wanted to scream, cry, throw up and murder Dewey all at the same time. We walked down the final leg of the descent - as I could not deal with one more crowded elevator. My thighs are still vibrating this morning. #FEAR #fuckeverythingandrun or #faceeverythingandrecover (at Tour Eiffel) https://www.instagram.com/p/CkNINvkt4h4/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

I am one of the fortunate ones. Today marks the passing of a decade since my first day in recovery. The painfully confining edges of the life I led previously burn brightly in my recollection, but I no longer carry an outsized burden of regret and recrimination. I owe this to choosing the opportunity to remake my life and my path, freed of the substance addiction that plagued me. At my lowest, I was plunged into despair, bewilderment and hopelessness. I was unaware of the greatness of the gift inherent in that moment, that my brokenness was exactly the entry point needed for the light of hope to stream in. Through this grace, I found the willingness to work a program of recovery that saved my life. I initially wanted only to salvage some semblance of my prior existence, minus the consequences of my alcoholism. The road that rose up to greet me along this journey was a product of divine timing. Awaiting me was a life of freedom beyond my wildest imaginings! It didn’t come without the hard work of facing fears honestly, or without seeking courage, authenticity, and humility. What did come was a new certainly that I can bring a positive, peaceful, serene attitude to any situation and share the brilliant light of hope with others. Today (and each new day) is my opportunity to be a gift in someone else’s life. Today is a day to appreciate fully the gift that so many of you have been in my own. Today is a day like any other ordinary day I have had in this past 10 years, and that is truly a cause for celebration! Rumi says, “Don’t you know yet? It is your light that lights the worlds.” - Just for today, I believe I do. ❤️ #recovery #tecoveryispossible #recoveryisbeautiful #recoveryjourney #recoverywarrior #faceeverythingandrecover (at Livingbrush Bodypaint, USA) https://www.instagram.com/p/CHSyqfvpOaV/?igshid=rwysxysfjr5q
