ontem conversávamos sobre drogas, sobre vícios, sobre recuperação. talvez porque eu tenha esse tipo de problema na família, e porque existe alguém muito próximo a mim que também enfrentou tudo isso, e que até hoje lida com as consequências disso, é algo que sempre me toca.
dai hoje, quando o nome do site me chamou atenção, acabei entrando, e li isso que segue, e achei tão bonito e tão emocionante:
"Pedro the Lion is loud in the speakers, and the city waits just outside our open windows. She sits and sings, legs crossed in the passenger seat, her pretty voice hiding in the volume. Music is a safe place and Pedro is her favorite. It hits me that she won't see this skyline for several weeks, and we will be without her. I lean forward, knowing this will be written, and I ask what she'd say if her story had an audience. She smiles. 'Tell them to look up. Tell them to remember the stars.'
(...)
As we arrive at the treatment center, she finishes: 'The stars are always there but we miss them in the dirt and clouds. We miss them in the storms. Tell them to remember hope. We have hope.'
I have watched life come back to her, and it has been a privilege. When our time with her began, someone suggested shifts but that is the language of business. Love is something better. I have been challenged and changed, reminded that love is that simple answer to so many of our hardest questions. Don Miller says we're called to hold our hands against the wounds of a broken world, to stop the bleeding. I agree so greatly. "
