Birth of Recovery Lane: Adventures of Self Discovery

...so, this is a monumental occasion...the start of visibility in the world...the realization that what I have to say is important and valuable enough to share with the world.  I am thankful to the God of my understanding, the God of the Bible, for soul healing that has given birth to this moment in time.

This blog is not about me...it is about the journey to healing in areas of my life received only through surrender and acceptance of help from others and help from a Power Greater than me...surrender to the evidence of depletion and destruction my choices brought...areas in my life where running on my own will, my own way of doing landed me in the "ditches" of life; totally defeated...and at the end of "self-effort".  Though I tried my hardest, at one point in my life I found myself: in obesity (today, I am 142 pounds lighter; and have been a healthy body size for almost four years); in workaholism and activity addiction (have found and am still growing in finding balance between over-exertion and under-exertion); low self esteem (have grown and still growing in value of self); lacking ability to feel and express my emotions; to set healthy boundaries (today, I have healed and am healing; my abmy life is 200% better than it used to be...this may be a hyperbole, but it is truly the way I feel inside.

I have been inspired to share my day-to-day journey of self-discovery...starting from now...this moment.  There will be times when I volley between past insight and current insight.  My heart desire is to yield to the leading of God as far as posting is concerned..."Thy Will Be Done"...
