You Want Motivation??

[freedom007]

Three years ago...I paid for, in cash, a 30 thousand dollar wedding...and 30 thousand dollars in home renovations...my career was exploding...and life was balanced.  Today, I have $18 in my account...numerous bills that are late...20k in Credit Card debt...and a Mortgage that needs to be refinanced in 9 months....i fight to find motivation to take a shower and get out of the house!

For those that are thinking about quitting...but aren't sure if this can happen to you...it can!!  And it does.  I am sure this story isn't unique and probably not the most tragic...but, if I don't stop now, mine will be one of loneliness, despair and ultimately, death.

2 weeks clean...and finally understanding the depths that drug abuse bring to us...even though I saw my brilliant brother come to my parents, homeless, a felon and a complete shell of his former self...  To end it on a good note...VERY motivated, VERY challenged, feeling VERY good and plenty of time to turn this around.  BUT, it has to happen now....and YOU have to want it.

Keep fighting my friends....don't let your bottom, be a tragic story...be inspired and fight...because you are indeed fighting for your life!!

God Bless (whatever that may be for you)  

Come and Play,

Free!!!!
