Welcome to my blog. I am excited about this new undertaking. My goal is to provide hope, encouragement and insight into the world of recovery from the chains of pornography. As a member of
The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints I am working the 12 steps of the church's
Addiction Recovery Program. I began this journey of recovery in October 2012 and am living the daily battle of a lifelong addiction.
The church has a powerful and extremely useful
website focused on pornography. It has more tools than I know what to do with. I strongly encourage anyone that is dealing with this addiction, who has a loved one involved with it or any church leaders to visit the church's website often. I know I am going to.
In
A Guide to Addiction Recovery and Healing, it says on page 1 something that has stuck with me from the first time I opened this book. It says, "Nothing begins without an individual's will to make it begin. Freedom from addiction and cleanliness begin with a tiny flicker of will." I have a "tiny flicker of will" and will continue to build on that every single day.
I am living my life with courage. I hope you will join me on this journey.
