Always like the floor +1. Both a celebration and a reminder that our work isn't done.

I fear I will always be chasing the vortex like a drug. None will be as special as my first hit.

Ephesians 5:15-16
15 Be very careful, then, how you live—not as unwise but as wise, 16 making the most of every opportunity, because the days are evil.

Following your gut to KTC is the LordsÂ’ wisdom working in you. Sharing the wisdom is the Lord working through you.

Proverbs 3:5
5 Trust in the LORD with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding

We are here because we have gained this specific wisdom and understanding and are to be the crutch for our brothers. Helping others find there way to freedom is a gift that not only fills our hearts with joy but causes it to over flow.

Psalm 119:105
105 Your word is a lamp for my feet, a light on my path.

We light their path to freedom.

Quitting is continuous action, it is the process of us becoming whole. As addicts we patch our holes with a substance, avoiding those flaws and insecurities with a feverant vervor. This locus of control we place over avoidance is soon replaced by axenity because we are out of control. We can no longer hide, run or burry the truth. We must learn to respect and deal with the person who we truely are. To quit we must give up control. We must trust others so we can learn to trust ourselves. Only then can we begin letting the holes become full, the flaws become gifts and the insecurities become the foundation of our lives.

At 1,301 days @100%, I don't intend on loosing that 100%. But there might be a time where I have an off day, who is going to track me down? Or is everyone going to say it's Candy and he will post up later?
I don't want to question who will hold me accountable rather I want to be able to ask who won't?
When you are as involved as you are here you leave a large wake behind you Candy. YouÂ’ll be tracked down. Congrats on 1300.
