This is a place for me to sort through what I'm learning as I am coming to grips with my husband's addictive behaviors, my codependency issues with him and others, and my need to turn my heart over to the Savior. There is so much happening that it's hard to capture it all, but I hope to get some of it down here. The 12-step program through LDS Family Services talks about the power of writing, so that is some of why I'm doing this. I also believe that there is a benefit in sharing our stories and journeys because these kinds of problems are so prevalent. I have found great peace in going to group meetings to share my thoughts and hear others' thoughts.
I also hope that over time, I will be able to see progress. It's hard to realize that this will probably be a long process; I'm not very patient. But I know God is there helping me line upon line, and I am grateful that I feel the hope for healing in my life and heart.
