Day 109 – Finding Strength on Hard Days

Day 109

Some days are harder than others. Today is one of those days.

I woke up feeling distant from the hope that’s kept me moving forward. Normally, I find solace in my words and my motto: One Step, One Punch, One Round at a time. But today, even that feels heavy.

Recovery isn’t linear—it’s a fight, a relentless battle against the weight of addiction, depression, and self-doubt. And today, the fight feels overwhelming.

I know I can’t give up. I know the world isn’t against me, even if it feels that way. But the memories of my past—the mistakes, the isolation, the pain—come rushing back. They whisper that I’m not enough. That I don’t belong.

But here’s what I’m trying to remember: Every step forward, no matter how small, is progress. Healing takes time, and I’m learning to give myself grace. I may not feel strong today, but I’ll try again tomorrow.

To anyone reading this: If today feels like too much, you’re not alone.

One Step. One Punch. One Round. 🌹
