years‚ I spent the majority of my summer training for football.

When I was thinking about writing this journal post a particular experiences came into my head. I pushed it aside for the fact that it didn’t fit the criteria for this journal.

It was difficult but my parents sheltered my brother and I the best they could. I remember when the only

When I was in seventh grade I decided to join hockey. I had never stepped on ice or touched a hockey stick before in my life.

I was missing most of the necessary equipment because neither I or my parents knew what I needed. The coach was able to borrow me some equipment from the association. I spent the next

I was unaware that the AA meetings had been setup with a set of codes or rules for those who struggle every day to fight this addiction. They
