Thinking of you as I go write on the donkey today. You’ve nailed it- it’s a beast, relapse is part of it- and I’m so glad you’re in the right spot for healing. Your honesty is a gift to us all. Sending love and healing vibes your way.

I missed this one back in October but that is the beauty of the back catalogue. It is always a joy to read your take Jordan. My two cents on relapse: let’s look at the long game. Sometimes the QB gets sacked. Lots of games in the season. Lots of seasons in a career. And there is more to life than football metaphors. Keep up the good work.
