ressurection…a term we are familiar with and perhaps fond of. just how many resurrections does one have with in themself!

so many of us in the mental health and recovery communities are well familiar with the concept of resurrection. are we waiting for that first one, yet another one and perhaps, oh dear god, please…the final one, the mother of all resurrections, the holey grail…full recovery!

well i’m sure we’re grateful for any remission that graces us with some relief and yet several have found a key to continued recovery and amazing quality of life. there are so many stories of hope out there…so many a “phoenix risen from the fire” (or salamander if your swiss!). while we may find we have jumped or been thrown from the skillet into the fire once more, we should be inspired by the good days we’ve found, and inspiration in the continued recovery like the story of jim s. who’s shared his amazing story and gianni (bipolar: a blast from the past), had shared that story with all of us: Jim S. shares his inspiring recovery story.  weather you have been living with depression, bipolar, alcoholism/addictions, etc…you are all precious gifts to this planet, really you are! today is the “christian” day of rebirth and renewal, but i hope we can all grab hope from what ever stories and experiences of remission and resurretion we can find and have.

today i will be concious and praying for remission, recovery and resurrection for all of us!
