Success! You ARE beautiful!

Hello: I am always amazed when I read positive quotes
Like this one. Because anyone who has any type of an addiction-whether it be food, alcohol/drugs,
shopping, gambling, sex or even Bingo -do so
because they have a hole in their soul and they are
trying to fill it with anything.
It's very hard to love yourself when the wind
is blowing thru it's lonely and scary.
But quotes like this give us hope to believe
we are worth the hardships involved to make the
necessary changes to begin loving ourselves.
For me it's one step forward, three steps back-two steps
Forward one step back-and so on.
And just so you understand I am walking the walk
I've recovered from alcohol/drugs 14 yrs.
Cigarettes 2 yrs.
Now I'm working on the weight.
Do I love myself? Most days
But there are still days when I turn to food
for emotional reasons, and comfort.
It's been a journey-one that I've been walking since
I've been 14.
So Thank you for those positive quotes-they keep
me striving to improve and love myself.
And the healthier I become-The more I do!
Blessings!
Annie
