Hi. Well, I don't know you, and you don't know me (and that's okay, because I've seen that you get this a lot).
I stumbled on your journal by mistake while trying to find a community. I saw the picture and shrugged, and then did a double-take at the entry. And then read the previous entry. And the one before that. And so on.
Your entires don't inspire me into rabid literary artistic frenzies, and I don't write poetry, anyway; I don't have any words of encouragement because I can't stand people patting me on the back for simply trying to survive, and I certainly can't identify with your situation because I haven't been there myself.
However.
I care, and I thought you should know that. I'm intrigued because you're a fighter, no matter what you might have done while under the influence, and I'm humbled because, though you made a bad choice, you have a good idea now about how to make things right.
I want you to know I don't expect anything from you; you owe nothing to anyone but yourself. I'm adding you to my friends list because I want to watch, and see what progress you make.
