A safe space of hope, offering guiding principles for those seeking clarity, honesty, and healing on the path of recovery from alcohol.
This doorway holds the principles that quietly guide my walk. They are not rules and they are not something you must master. They are simple truths that have helped me return to what matters, again and again.
Honesty is telling the truth about where I am, even when I feel exposed.
It looks like saying, “This is what’s real for me right now.”
Hope is the quiet moment of believing, “I may not see the whole path, but I am willing to keep going.”
It looks like choosing to stay, part of me still wondering if something different is possible.
Faith is trusting that I am not walking alone, even when I don’t know what comes next.
It looks like taking the next breath without needing the entire map.
Courage is choosing honesty and allowing my scars to be seen.
It looks like saying, “This is where I’ve been, and I am still here.”
Integrity is living in alignment with what I know to be true.
It looks like choosing what is right for my life, even when no one else is watching.
Willingness is being open to change, even when I am unsure.
It looks like saying, “I am willing to be willing.”
Humility is knowing I do not have to do this alone.
It looks like asking for help and allowing myself to be supported.
Love is choosing compassion over judgment, for myself and for others.
It looks like meeting what is broken with gentleness instead of shame.
Discipline is choosing to return to what matters, again and again, even when it is quiet and unseen.
It looks like saying, “I keep coming back to what gives me life.”
Patience is allowing change to unfold in its own time.
It looks like staying present, even when progress feels slow.
Awareness is noticing what is happening within me, without needing to fix it immediately.
It looks like pausing long enough to listen to what my life is asking of me.
Service is allowing my story to become a source of light for someone else.
It looks like walking beside another and saying, “You are not alone.”
