I am responsible for things most people are not even aware or conscious of.

For that I am responsible.

I am responsible for the used, the abused, the marginalized, the oppressed, those who cannot advocate for themselves.

For that I am responsible.

I am responsable to carry the current of healing, positivity in the midst of suffering, darkness and negativity.

For that I am responsible.

I am responsible to carry the load when others breakdown, meet their limitations or become heavy laden with living requiring a rest.

For that I am responsible.

I am responsible to continue to evolve, develop and lead the momentum of positive growth in the areas of therapeutic healing in our community.

For that I am responsible.

I am responsible to my clientele those who trusted me to assist them in their journey of life, to share their vulnerabilities to ask me for assistance.

For that I am responsible.

I am responsible to my family, my friends and my animals. To be in tune, to be present to their life, their needs and what I may offer in assistance.

For that I am responsible.

I am responsible to recovery, to sobriety to those who may need support, assistance and understanding.

For that I am responsible.

I am responsible for me.

For that I am responsible.
