who do I blog for?
Jack Nicolson put it brilliantly in the road-trip scene from the 1999 movie As Good As It Gets: Not everyone has a terrible story to get over. Some people have great stories, beautiful stories that take place in parks with friends and noodle salad. Good times, noodle salad. Just no one in this car.
If you're overwhelmed today or need help facing a painful yesterday, you're in the right place. You matter to God. It (whatever it is), matters to God. But no one can make that discovery for you. I'm here to comfort, inspire, and even challenge you along the way. The lessons I learned throughout my toughest years of healing were never just for me. God had you in mind as well. You are why The Medicine Place exist.

Get Out of the Way
Several years ago I had a habit of enabling my boyfriend (now clean and sober husband's) drug addiction. I certainly couldn't see it at the time. I was just trying to "help": help him get off drugs and stay off drugs, help him keep his apartment clean, help him wake up on time so he wouldn't be late for work, help him become the man I needed him to be.
And then one day his sponsor said to me, "Michael would find God a lot faster if you and his grandmother would get out of the way and let him hit rock bottom."
He was right.
