A Recovery Blog

This blog is about my continuing recovery from severe mental illness and addiction. I celebrate this recovery by continuing to write, by sharing my music and artwork and by exploring Buddhist and 12 Step ideas and concepts. I claim that the yin/yang symbol is representative of all of us because I have found that even in the midst of acute psychosis there is still sense, method and even a kind of balance. We are more resilient than we think. We can cross beyond the edge of the sane world and return to tell the tale. A deeper kind of balance takes hold when we get honest, when we reach out for help, when we tell our stories.

The First Human Beings

 The First Human Beings


The first human beings on Earth 

Were from Africa

Were from Africa

The Mother Continent of us all.


And the first human beings on Earth 

Had beautiful dark skin,

Not light colored.


Why won’t we honor

Our beginnings

And honor the God

Of us all?
