the miracle of recovery is possible

From the State of the Union Address last night:

"Another cause of hopelessness is addiction to drugs. Addiction crowds out friendship, ambition, moral conviction, and reduces all the richness of life to a single destructive desire... Tonight, let us bring to all Americans who struggle with drug addiction this message of hope: The miracle of recovery is possible, and it could be you."

I believe George W. was speaking directly to me when he said these words, and I thank him for his encouragement this week as I wrestle with my own addiction and cut back to 3 cups of coffee per day.
