Focusing On The Good
Updated: Apr 28, 2020
My nephew’s birthday was technically yesterday, and yes, in those moments I miss back home. Him and I had a nice little text chat and I firmly believe he knows how much auntie loves and misses him. I’m glad he is to an age that we can communicate even though my sister and I don’t. He gets to see my little girl and spend quality time with her, I’m grateful for this. I miss her immensely, and even though sobriety has brought me many bountiful blessings, I can’t help but feel the ache in my chest daily with the absence of my child. I can only continue being present, a good wife, employee, friend, and many other things including sober. Somehow the weight and obsession has been so gracefully lifted and for this blessing I cannot be thankful enough.
1.) Patience
2.) Feelings; good and bad I still feel them to the core
3.) Nuggles
4.) Frozen coffee
5.) A warm bed
6.) A rewarding job
7.) Unconditional love
8.) Elise Corinne 💗💗
9.) My wife 💕
10.) My family and the love they have for my child
Praying for everyone in my life isn’t always easy, but I know it’s what I am supposed to do. I will continue striving to be the best version of self and only hope God’s plan is to reunite my daughter and I. However that may look.
Yours truly,
Anna
