Two days ago, I celebrated one year of being clean of all drugs(including alcohol). If you are battling with addiction, there *is* hope. In mid-June, I was released from jail after doing 15 months. I will get off of house arrest December 19th.
-I now have my license for the first time in 6 years.
-I have had four raises totalling $3 in the four months I've been at my job.
-Starting today, I am now an Assistant Director at the recovery home I've been staying at.
-I am over halfway through the guitar work on an album I've been writing.
-I have a beautiful girlfriend that adores me as much as I adore her.
-I am happy.
-I am clean.
None of this would have been possible without God, and the support of my family and *real* friends. I consider the village part of my group of friends. Your support has meant a lot to me.

Thank you.

It really is cool, MM. My family gets together on Christmas, and I'm off of house arrest on Dec. 19. Honestly, it's going to be a somewhat anxious time for me. I've talked to a lot of my family since being released, but others I have not...

Congrats on the recovery, I hope you can get back to normality for Christmas. Don't give a God the credit though it's all down to you and the support of friends and family around you.

I've was a skeptic for years. I thought I was so clever defining my beliefs as "an Agnostic leaning toward the possibility of God". I have, now, seen truly unexplainable things. Miracles, even. I'm no Bible thumper, and don't buy into religion, but I have felt the presence of God and work [almost] every day to improve that connection. I would not be alive today without God. I know that for a fact.

Runevillage the forum is pretty well much done. Runevillage the group will eventually die, but as long as we're still friends with each other in the end, it's still a pretty big thought in our heads. Runevillage the family is forever, no matter where we settle down. If absolutely nothing else ever comes of Runevillage in the future, that alone is a pretty damn awesome thought.
