My Life Changing Experience Analysis

My Life Changing Experience That Led Me to CCU
My life changed when I became an addict. I was addicted to Meth. It is not a road anyone would want to go down, but I chose this road for a long time. Let's just say it led me down a bad path to nowhere. I lost my dignity, my job and my self- respect. My family didn't want to be around me, and that hurt me so deeply. I felt so alone at times, and often begged God to take me.
It all started when my grandfather passed away. He raised me from birth, and his passing left an empty hole in my soul . My life felt incomplete. If things could not get any worse they did. One week after my grandfather's death I loss the two children I had been raising. They were my friends kids that I volunteered to keep while she got

I raised them for eighteen months. The baby was eighteen months when they took him away. I was in delivery room, for his birth , and cut his cord. The five year old is my niece she was a joy to each of my days . Her grandmother was my aunt, and has now went to her resting place with God. My heart breaks for all the loss
I have suffered in such a little time . All this is what led me to make the worse choice in life . It led me to Meth.
Do any of you know how I feel? I cried out to God to help me. Please Lord save me from this deep hole I'm in. Deliver me from this evil I have put myself in. It took a long time of praying for help. Praying for an understanding why so much was taken at once from me. I really needed to understand why. Well God showed me that everyone has to die eventually. My grandfather lived a great life, and was ready to move on to his final resting place. He had spoken to me on numerous occasions before his death. I just never listened to his words. I was afraid. God opened my ears and my heart to know my grandfather is in good hands. He assured me we would meet

    “WHOA WHOA WHOA THIS IS BALONEY MAN!” that is something I say whenever I am frustrated. People have always told me sometimes the best way to learn something is through failure. People value things they have accomplished differently. Often the people whom are naturally adept at things do not realize how much of a struggle it can be for others. Many times when people have told me that if you are going to fall, fall forward. Do not let your insecurities, doubts, and pride get in the way of improving yourself. In brief, there can always be a way to improve yourself.…

    Throughout the past year I have endured several life changing occurances. One of my family members troubled through the treturous stages of cancer and unfortunately has passed at this time. If I have taken anything away from this, it is that family is the most important resource in a persons life. Without those people who tell you that you can, regardless of the circumstances, becoming succesful could be very challenging. After clearing my head, I was able to start thinking of a career choice that would make me enjoy going to work. I encountered an opening at a local CVS/Pharmacy as a Pharmacy Technician and applied. After being hired, I immediately fell in love with the surroundings, the people, the patient interaction, and the knowledge…

    We all have had moments of tragedy and despair. It is in our darkest hour that many of us pray to God for comfort, I believe he answers our prayers when we are ready. We need to understand that asking God for material things will probably be ignored, that the greatest gifts we receive from God come from what we live and learn. For instance, my life was very difficult in many ways. I came from a home plagued by mental disease and addiction, it was a very lonely existence and I had often prayed for peace and to be loved unconditionally by another person. It did not seem like too much to want from life, however inside me grew resentment and anger. I was not ready to be loved or for a peaceful existence because I had not even loved myself. Over twenty years I lived my life angry at God for not giving me what seemed basic for most people and it consumed me to the point of near death. I saw what I had become, but now I had a child and I did not want her to feel the pain that I felt. If I did not change, it would just be repeating the vicious cycle. A very life altering decision was made and I began to heal from my past, but I still had a long journey ahead. I still felt lost and needed someone to understand. Finally I begged God to show me…
