Every year, on this day, I light a candle remembering the people we have lost and say a prayer that we don't lose anymore. I am forever grateful that I have thrived in recovery and have no idea why I got to stay here, and people whom I love and miss terribly didn't. I do know that what we are doing is not working. We are still losing too many. My hope is that this time next year, we will be able to say we lost fewer beautiful souls because someone took a leap and did something different!
