in times of anothers hardships, God definately knows
who is the right person needed to intervien and to show
the road he walks down has potholes you know very well
and the dead end sign at the end is sheer hell.
mdear, you have done all that you can do
it is he that now needs to think his life through.
the pain of withdrawel may or may not end
but he will always know the care of a true friend
i have lost many to addiction to painkillers. it is one of the hardest things to go through.
i woke up this morning with hope in my heart and a smile on my face. something not felt in a long time.... 
rain is here and it is mushroom hunting season. i found many chantrells, and a big one that look like a brain.. (forgot what its called) cooked it up last night with cooking sherry and fresh rosemary... YUM |
Thank You my dear for the poetic wisdom that comes so natural to you
When I think of hope, the first thing that comes to mind are these clips from The Shawshank Redemption..
The things that we hold in our heart, and in the confines of our mind, that no person..no illness can take from us

narrating] I find I'm so excited, I can barely sit still or hold a thought in my head. I think it's the excitement only a free man can feel, a free man at the start of a long journey whose conclusion is uncertain. I hope I can make it across the border. I hope to see my friend, and shake his hand..(hug her)..I hope the Pacific is as blue as it has been in my dreams. I hope.
