My Dearest Destiny,
How are you, sweetie? I hear that you're taking a time out in order to put things in proper perspective. It makes proud of you that you took the initiative to do this.
I don't know what type of program you're in—or what type of opportunities are offered there. But you know that my prayers are with you, right? They are! Happily I pray thankful prayers for you. Your life experiences are making you a strong person for some reason, in spite of the emotional pains involved.
You know, when I pray for loved ones who are going through their personal ordeals, I don't simply invoke the higher powers to watch over you and let it go at that. But I see solutions to your problems and feel inclined to offer suggestions. You see, I see prayer as a precursor to becoming more involved. And in this case, I'm proud that you're at a place in your life to take inventory of your blessings and opportunities to make the most of and therein redevelop your attitude of gratitude. That attitude that makes all the painful experiences pale in comparison.
Okay, so here's my suggestion, Honey: pen and paper in hand. Make a positive-negative list of your life. Trust me, I'm sure you've definitely got more positives to be grateful for than negatives. Yet if the negatives list seems more important to you, then there's a more comprehensive list you can write out listing all the events in your life giving you grief. This is an exercise of catharsis which will help you come to terms with your past once you dare expose it to paper.
It is a scary exercise of catharsis—to dare to revisit painful memories which we naturally try to avoid and forget. But on paper, they really don't seem so terrifying. Then you can be free of them—strong from the experiences.
You don't have to be so analytical about everything though, Destiny Joy. It's easy enough to let bygones be bygones and simply proceed in your life carefree and joyfully excited about this life of yours. With all the wonderful experiences.
What, you say. Drugs and alcohol problems tend to make even more problem? D'oh! Yup, that "experience" ruins many lives. Aren't you as grateful as can be that that experience is out of the way and you can get on with your life?
So what are your plans now? Do you have a list of short-term and long-term goals spelled out? Care to share? I always look forward to see what you have to say when you write me. I wish you all the best, Destiny.
Be blessed.

But hey other than that though, guess what I went and done did!??! I LEFT CALIFORNIA!! Drove all the way to this little town that sits right on the border of Minisota and North Dakota. In a 2011 jeep Wrangler that some fucking old ass creep of a fucking rapist prick gave me the keys too after he felt bad for taking advantage of me. So of course I took off with it! Its not like I had any of it planned out or anything. It was a super spontaneous, spur of the moment kind of thing. I went with Smokey's cousin, Timmy Crownover. (Speaking of smokey..... We gotta have a conversation about that one some day for sure...) But hey I'm so glad I did though cause now I'm clean, and I'm even completely over my withdrawals and everything. I've been out here for like a month now, staying at Timmy's brothers house. Spending most of my time babysitting his brothers kids lately.
Anyways so since I've been clean I feel like a completely different person. I feel like my mind/body/ and my soul while I was using for all those years was almost kind of stuck on autopilot. Now all of the sudden I've got SO much on my mind constantly, and my awareness is crazy it's like I'm all the sudden able to see things for what they really are. It's kind of hard to explain it completely without sounding borderline insane lol but I'll tell you more about all that later. Now that my mind feels sharper and not as weak I've been thinking a lot about you and all the things that we have talked about, and I've been getting this overwhelming urge to get a hold of you. Do you remember how the first few times that you had people reach out to me for you I kept saying that I felt intimidated and whatever else and that's why it was hard for me to write you? Well it's crazy what a sober mind can do because it couldn't be more different. After realizing just how much more clear my mind is working, my level of confidence in myself as well as knowing a lot more about you, has me not only intrigued but excited to see where it goes from here, like where it could end up taking us.
So, I guess with that being said, to respond to a comment that you had made in one of the letters that you had wrote to me while I was staying over at Kevin Sutton's.... I am more than ready to play this game with you. I'll probably end up writing you again before you write back but if not I just at least wanted to fill you in on everything and let you know what's been going on.
