"Recovery doesn't happen in isolation. It happens at kitchen tables, on porches, and in the quiet accountability of showing up for the people you live with."
"Forget the former things; do not dwell on the past. See, I am doing a new thing! Now it springs up; do you not perceive it? I am making a way in the wilderness and streams in the wasteland."
