Inside This Mind of Mine: The Experience of Recovery

Inside This Mind of Mine: The Experience of Recovery

The Experience of Recovery

To all,

The other day I sat in on an AA/NA meeting with my Mom where she spoke at and it gave me a great idea. Listening to her story and the story of others, I felt inspired. If you are or know someone who is in Recovery, I'm sure they will tell you that it helps to continuously go to these meetings and hear others share their story. It's like a constant reminder of why they are alive.

With that being said, I'd like to collect stories from people around the world and possibly do something that will allow me to share their successful stories with others. So, if you know someone who would love to share their story, please have them email me at: myrecoveryexperience@gmail.com.

I'm excited to do this and I hope that every one is just as excited to read the stories and experiences of others as well.

Thank You,

Brandi Lewis

Questions of the day..

Do you think the media and public eye should leave "Octomom" alone?

Do you think she should take the Porno offer that Vivid presented to her?

My answers:
Yes , they should leave her alone. What she did may not be moral or normal, but now the poor lady may suffer from loosing her newborns and she's faces with the whole world knowing.

As much as she may need the money, I don't think that she should take this opportunity because of her already ruined rep. Poor kids!

DAM/AGE

In October 2001, the supreme court in India charged Aundhati Roy with contempt of court. This is the story of the events that led to her arrest.


"Excellent! Required viewing! A testament to the power of one person to activate millions to protest against environmental, political, and financial corruption. Once seen, the viewer never forgets the power of even one voice when it speaks out against environmental and political injustice. DAM/AGE powerfully illustrates that environmental threats are enormous in scope, enforced by powerful courts, governments, and corporations who, hand-in-hand, threaten the lives of hundreds of millions of people."—H-Environment Discussion Network

Dumb Bitch


just outta curiosity....



Would you ever call your girl a dumb bitch?

For any reason @ all?

Especially if you planned on being with her after?


My response:
Hell no,
If you are my girl you are my queen.
Period!
I would, no matter how angry u make me, never disrespect you with such words like "dumb bitch" that degrade you.

How I feel:
I'm with a woman to have a light of respect shine upon me that a man can never do for me. We know what it's like to be degraded by men, I would never want to put myself or my love in that situation.

Prop 8

Can you actually believe there's someone on a gay web site that voted Yes on Prop 8? Talk about a total identity crisis. This is for you whom I will not mention. I feel you deserve no pleasure from your name slipping through my fingers onto these keys I press to speak my thoughts. I will not "Hate" you because hate is a form of discrimination which you've already taken pride in committing such act. But I will tell you this, love will prevail and we will have justice. Love.Does.Conquer.ALL!

And if you voted Yes because you believed that it would be required to teach our young about Gay Marriage in school, then you're ignorant. Forgive me for saying so, but I find no other word that shall fit an uneducated person such as yourself. Had you done the research, you would know the FACTS and not the RUMORS and Advertising. This type of act is why I believe there should be some sort of psychological testing before we, as people, are allowed to vote for anything. Propaganda is what this Country feeds of off as it hides her real diversity beneath the shadows. I can not tell you how sickening to my stomach it makes me to witness the same discrimination amongst us blacks that took place with our ancestors happening, yet, once again in a different form.

I've taking so long to write about this because I wanted to see what everyone else was saying, as well as me gathering the right words to express how deeply I feel about the situation. I, at first, wanted to come out with all the "fcUk you's; B*tch's; etc. etc." But I quickly realized that by doing such a thing I would have put myself right on the map with the rest of "them." With this being said.. I still don't believe I can find the right words (other than what I've already said) to describe the emotions that have bestowed upon me since this tragic incident.


I've attached some video's, enjoy!



After everything above took place, it was hard to be happy for this:


I thought America was ready for that "Change," but clearly I was mistaken. America, I'm begining to believe that it's not us, Homosexuals, who are in the closet. But it is you who hide behind closed doors and darkness. I pray for you, one day you shall have your light shined upon you. One Day!


Thank you for reading my thoughts.
