If you are struggling with substance addictions then you should be well aware that there are people who
want to help you become stronger as you recover. Being strong does not mean that you can manage
taking on this journey alone, it means you can manage asking for help when you need it.
There are good willed people that will notice your struggles without you having to say a word. They
will read your body language, understand your tone, and actually listen when you speak. As good
natured people are not preoccupied themselves with whether or not they are having a great day, rather
they embrace every day making it a better day for the loved ones around them.
Good Natured People
You may have met these good natured people on the streets, at your jobs, or even in your own homes.
These good natured people have been there for you on countless occasions when you needed them
most. It is almost as if they are modern day super heroes fighting to help you in your struggles while
remaining equipped with all the necessary tools needed to combat pain. The good natured super heroes
remain in plain sight for everyone to see; it just takes knowing where to look. One of my personal all
time heroes was my mother; she truly was the nicest person I have ever met. She gave me life, fed me
affection, and she did everything solely out of the good nature of her heart.
Who They Are
Though a good natured person is not only family members; they are the teachers, coaches, and sober
supports that you will meet through the program that have always wanted the very best for you.
Remember the tutors that helped you pass your exams, the cross guards who stopped you from walking
out into traffic as a child and the lunch ladies that made sure your daily food was safe. These heroes
have been and always will be ready to help a person in need. When you meet these good natured people
do not be nervous about accepting their help, instead be humbled by their ability to retain such a noble
outlook.
“Strength is not defined by one’s weakness but rather by the integrity of their morals.”
It must be such a wonderful sensation to have the disposition of these good natured people whose
mission is to support the goals of the people around them. At Lifescape Solutions, we believe in the
good nature of people and we encourage their mission to help others in need through substance
abuse treatment. If we did not believe in these good natured people then we would not have so many of them employed here
at our humble organization. There truly is no person better suited to help someone down the long road to recovery than an
individual who can remain positive even in the darkest of times.
