Dear Beloved Children,
You are true miracles. Each breath you take is a testament to the extraordinary nature of life, the existence of hope, and the enduring power of love.
You may often see your father’s scars; they are visible reminders of battles fought and endured. These scars are not merely marks on his skin; they tell a profound story of resilience and survival. Behind each scar is a narrative of struggle and triumph—a testament to the challenges faced in the war against addiction.
Addiction is a formidable adversary that many confront daily. It creeps in quietly, often unnoticed until it has taken hold. It deceives, creating an illusion of control while gradually stealing everything of value—health, relationships, and ultimately, life itself. However, there is always a path to recovery, and it does not have to mirror the struggles we faced.
Genetics may not work in your favor, and you might find yourself at risk. But know this: there is always hope. You do not need to traverse the dark paths that we did to understand the value of life.
I pray daily that you will never encounter the demons that plagued your father and me. I hope you never experience the depths of despair that lead to self-harm or the desperate measures taken to escape the clutches of addiction. Most importantly, I wish for you to recognize that if you ever find yourself in a place where pain feels insurmountable, remember our scars; they signify that there is always a way out. Life is worth fighting for. Even in your darkest hour, I assure you that help is available.
Our struggles brought about profound darkness, but your journey can be different. You can achieve peace without conflict. Hope can exist before despair sets in. You can live a life filled with joy and fulfillment, avoiding the shadows we faced.
Let our experiences guide you. Allow our journey to serve as a map to your own path—a source of inspiration and strength.
With all my love,
Mom
