just a good thought for all

I was on methamphetamines for about 7 years. I lost everything, my children, my home, my life. I was homeless for about a year and a half. Now I have been clean for a little over 3 years and still going. My life has returned to me. My children were adopted by my parents, but I see them almost everyday, and have them over alot. I just found my oldest daughter and now we are building a relationship after 6 years of no contact. Any of you that are recovering- keep up the good work, it will pay off in the end. It is going to be hard, but it gets easier with time. any body that needs someone to talk to, i'm here
