“We recover.”
– Life with Hope, first edition, page 69

Final thought: Today I can embrace growing new parts of my potential.

By Ras M. of District 27 I used to smoke to stop time. I just needed a pause – from the oncoming crazy, and my subsequent flooding of anxiety. Of course, there would be the crazy again, 5 hours later. When I stopped smoking, I found it challenging to fill large chunks of time in…
