    Came across this the other day....it spoke volumes to me about each of us no matter if you are just beginning this journey or at the end trying to recover.

    "Just as Long as I Have Breath"
    Text by Alicia S. Carpenter:

    Just as long as I have breath, I must answer, 'Yes' to life;
    though with pain I made my way, still with hope I meet each day.
    If they ask what I did well, tell them I said, 'Yes', to life

    Just as long as vision lasts, I must answer, 'Yes' to truth;
    in my dream and in my dark, always: that elusive spark.
    If they ask what I did well, tell them I said, 'Yes' to truth.

    Just as long as my heart beats, I must answer, 'Yes' to love;
    disappointment pierced me through, still I kept on loving you.
    If they ask what I did best, tell them I said, 'Yes' to love.
