Liberation

In my old life (addiction) I never thought about liberation. All I was living for was survival. Then that dark night of the soul brought me to my knees, to a point of this is it! This is what is happening! I was presented with a decision to make. I let go, and I asked for help. Wasn't my decision! Ever since, over the years in recovery, I learned to live in the present moment. To let go of control. And to survive in "what is". Did that free me? Absolutely. It put me on a path to peace, calm, and happiness. I believe liberation is a birthright, but we need to know who we are. Practicing mindfulness is a invitation to be the best person I can be.
