Hold fast to dreams for if dreams die, life is a broken winged bird that cannot fly.

-Langston hughes


Many of our dreams died as our addiction got worse. We felt the loss but couldn't speak it. With recovery, we regain our ability to dream. Dreams of sharing our lives with family and friends return. They push out thoughts of getting hihg. Dreams of pride and self respect reappear. The replace the awful feeling of shame. Like the quote above says. "hold fast to dreams..." Our dreams are our wishes for the future they hold a picture of who we want to be.



Swim really likes this one... Dreams are what really keeps him sober.. Whether is is his next material project or getting a degree they keep his mind from thinking about getting high...furthermore he also has friends now who he can share is dreams with before he got sober all his dreams no one cared about.. for example getting 20 morphine pills or some stupid shit.
