    Thank u for this...I am 43 and my mom was addicted to crack for over 15 years after my father was murdered in the 80's. I saw so much stuff as a kid myself I am also blessed to be here sane today.
    Thank God my mother eventually became clean and became my best friend. Regardless of her life style then she was still my mom.
    She just passed 3/28/2020 from covid-19...but best believe she was a strong woman.🙏🏾❤💖🥰👭🏽

      BIG FACTS ! judging and bad talking, makes those who do the bad talking look worse than those they talk about. praising success and glorifying the journey of overcoming, and sustaining that success as the ultimate end goal, is how we should talk about one another. a little positivity can go a long way

I am 19 months sober today after fighting an addiction that was so strong and evil for 15+ years. That way of life for me is not what I want to be remembered for. I'm given this opportunity to be somebody and help another addict who needs a chance who deserves to feel hope and find peace in their minds and become a productive person.

    This is an amazing story I remember reading this in the book The Rise and Fall off BMF to actually see Jabari the man himself tell the story is incredible he's the definition of a stand up guy don't bend break or fold like he asked the guy in the beginning of the doc are you prepared to go to jail for 25 yrs to life he knew what he was getting himself into you have to respect him for walking that walk and not just talking that talk he lived by a code of principal and that's admirable
