Forgiveness didn't change my past, it changed my future and it gave me a life beyond my wildest dreams.
Imagine carrying the weight of the past like a heavy backpack. In this heartfelt episode of 'Canadian Sober Eh!', Dougie Fresh sits down with Sheri, who shares her journey of letting go and moving forward. Sheri's powerful quote, 'Forgiveness is giving up the hope that the past could be any different.
It's accepting the past for what it was and using this moment and this time to help yourself move forward', sets the stage for an eye-opening conversation about healing and forgiveness. Sheri opens up about her childhood trauma and how it influenced her adult life, shaping her into someone who initially saw herself as a victim. Through candid dialogue, she reveals how embracing forgiveness allowed her to shed this mentality and find a life filled with unexpected joy and fulfillment.
The discussion also touches on the threefold illness of addiction, emphasizing the crucial role of honesty in recovery. Dougie and Sheri explore how spirituality played a significant part in her healing process, highlighting the transformative power of letting go of past grievances. Sheri's story is not just about overcoming addiction; it's about finding a new way to live that’s free from the chains of past hurts. This episode is a beacon of hope for anyone struggling with their own past.
It reminds us that while we can't change what has happened, we have the power to change our future by choosing forgiveness. Tune in to hear Sheri's inspiring story and discover how you, too, can move forward with a lighter heart.
