Part 2/3: Don't Give Up on Your Dreams
By Ashley Huckabee
The main reason my dreams seemed unattainable was because of my alcoholism. I had desperately wanted to quit drinking for years, but because of medical issues I was experiencing, I felt like I didn’t have that choice. I had been to several doctors, but none could find the source of my chronic pain. Drinking was the only thing that seemed to relieve it, but because it only lasted a short while, it further reinforced the addiction cycle.
I was suffering through one of the most difficult periods of my life, both emotionally and physically, and I was feeling utterly defeated. One night when I was feeling particularly hopeless, I put on a sermon and cried myself to sleep. When I woke up the following morning, it was clear something incredible had happened. After suffering in agony every day for 10 years, the mystery pain had completely vanished. I got the distinct impression that, for the first time in my life, I stood a chance of becoming something other than the constant source of disappointment that I had always been. In that moment, I knew everything had changed, and I reclaimed my dream of helping others.
