SOBER REFLECTIONS: MUSINGS FROM KAT

Sunlight illuminating a forest of pine trees reflected in a calm lake, with lily pads floating on the water. Dark storm clouds loom above.

Sobriety is a journey of forgiving your past, growing in the uncomfortableness of being human and rising up in the joy of living with your eyes wide open.

My musings come in the middle of the night, hiding under the blankets, shielding the light from my sleeping husband, writing like my fingers are on fire. They hit me while I’m driving, it’s like a bolt of lightening, I veer off to catch them while they run on a projector screen before me. They spill from my soul aching to be heard.

I am committing to this process until I’m out of thoughts, until I can sit on my porch swing, holding a book with the perfect cover and fan the pages of my life.

Thank you for listening.
