Dear Susie,

It's said in the rooms that a milestone of recovery is giving up all hope of a better past. I'm trying to live by that, not denying the past that still defines in part who I am, but I say no to the fearfulness. The future is way too promising to let our ancient anxieties pull us back ceaselessly.

I love you.
