Start a New Day!

It is good to clear the air! Whether or not we agree to disagree, sever a relationship, or start a relationship over, it is good to clear the air.  Even if the parties you clear the air with don't respond, it is still what God wants us to do.  We are only accountable for ourselves.  I have been hurt by addicts, and I have hurt addicts.  Being co-dependent can be harmful to relationships.  However, co-dependency comes in many forms just like denial. 

Only 1.2 million out of 2.3 million addicts ever ask and seek help (SAMHSA).  This is a very sad statistic.  This means that 1.1 million people are walking around in denial.  These are denials of behaviors that they need to address, addictions they need to discontinue, and people they need to quit abusing. When the addict gets help, lives change. 

The question is, do you want to change?
