 Good morning! My name is Lauren, and I'm a grateful, recovering alcoholic/addict. I took this picture. Taking photography is one thing I love to now now that I am clean and sober. It is one thing that I have time to do now that I am clean and sober. I love this word...Hope. When I was drinking and using, I had no hope. I was sad and depressed and hopeless. I cared about nothing and no one. I went through life day by day wishing for something to get better but I didn't change anything...so nothing changed. I was miserable. I don't miss those days. I don't regret those days though either. They made me who I am and got me to where I am today. Today I have hope. God has given me hope. Only He gives me the strength to go through each day. Only He gives me the courage to keep putting one foot in front of the other. Only He gives me hope for a better tomorrow. Thank you God! That's all I have today.
