Lifting the Spirit

[[st...]]

During withdrawal, I'll be loving Me until I dream of life and life becomes a dream...

 

[[st...]]

The fact that I can now listen to and love music again, proves to me that neurons do heal sooner or later.

Withdrawal was a mental and physical prison. We are unaware that the body keeps working on the chains until we finally see them broken.

The video starts slow but it picks up. There are 2 songs here, Waymaker and Break Every Chain

Don't let the benzo ride - wonder why lyrics make such a perfect match...

[Verse 1]
Don't let the devil ride
No, no, don't let the devil ride
If you let him drive
Still he wanna drive
Don't even ride

[Verse 2]
Don't let him drag you down
No, no, don't let him drag you down
If he drags you down
Turn your soul around

[Instrumental Break]

[Verse 3]
Don't let him ride with you
No, no, don't (Don't do it, don't do it)
Let him ride with you
If he rides with you
Tell you what to do
Don't even ride

"You going through your midnight, But tomorrow you're gonna smile."

"This race is not for those who run fast, but for those who finish." Jermaine Edwards

 

Dont Count Me Out
Jermaine Edwards
In my life I had so many low seasons,
Alot of failures without reason,
Many people try so many times to tear me down,
Never prayed, I tried to pick me up off the ground.

They said I wasn't gonna make it very far,
Look in my life and I got so many scars,
It wasn't easy but I really worked hard,
Always having Father God in my heart.

Don't count me out yet I'm still running,
Fall down but I got up fighting,
My eyes are on God's Kingdom always,
But I won't stop until I finish this race.

Don't count me out yet I'm still running,
Fall down but I got up fighting,
My eyes are on God's Kingdom always,
But I won't stop until I finish this race.

I know I'm not where I'm supposed to be,
But I'm trying to be the man God wants me to be,
Don't let nobody distract me from my dreams,
Even if my friends turn my enemies.

Honestly sometimes I feel so lonely,
And I wonder if God is walking with me,
I see one set of footprints in the sand,
It was God always carring me.

Don't count me out yet I'm still running,
Fall down but I got up fighting,
My eyes are on God's Kingdom always,
And I won't stop until I finish this race.

Don't count me out yet I'm still running,
Fall down but I got up fighting,
My eyes are on God's Kingdom always,
And I won't stop until I finish this race.

Bridge
I'm never alone,
You're never alone,
Cause He hears the tears that you cry
The moments got to be alright,

You said it's impossible (you said it's impossible)
With God its possible (with God it's possible).
You said it's impossible (you said it's impossible)
With God its possible (with God it's possible).
You said it's impossible (you said it's impossible)
With God its possible (with God it's possible).
You said it's impossible (you said it's impossible)
With God its possible (with God it's possible).

So when people wipe the tears from your eyes,
Sorrows only last for awhile,
You going through your midnight,
But tomorrow you're gonna smile.

Riding on these positive waves:

"Why don't you knock it off with them negative waves? Why don't you dig
how beautiful it is out here? Why don't you say something righteous and
hopeful for a change?"

Head down 'til the work is done
Waiting for that morning sun
Soldier keep on marchin' on "

The best thing to do about symptoms is NOT to freak out because it tends to make them worse. We just have to 'dance' around them.

Freedom (I won't let you down)
Freedom (I will not give you up)
Freedom (Gotta have some faith in the sound)
You've got to give what you take (It's the one good thing that I've got)

during withdrawal, I had to use my brain, like these nuns here, or loose it:

Historical perspective on standard medical treatment and its consequences. What many of us have just recently learned and many experts still claim to not have learned, has been known about for a very long time. I’m posting it here because information is empowering, power to the people!

“Curing disease without removing its cause is exactly like trying to sober up a drunk man while he continues to drink.” - removing the cause was key for me to get better. So true and so basic yet seems forgotten by most.
