I spent a year working for a company cleaning ductwork. It is a very intimate job.
I would go into a stranger’s house, look for all the heating ducts in every room and start removing the registers. Sometimes I would need to move furniture, I would see the dust, the pictures on the walls, the knickknacks revealing the individualistic character, likes and dislikes of the owner.
By the time I had finished going through every room, every closet, I felt I knew the owner, especially the woman, intimately.
Rooms talk to me. A house is the extension of a woman’s personality. Spending a few hours in someone’s house removing dust that even she does not know about was too much for me. I only lasted a year.
In this website, I have opened every door and closet of my mind. It is a diary of the last years of my recovery. I reveal secrets that I did not even admit to myself. I sometimes wonder if I say too much. But I know it is necessary. Maybe it will help someone else.
At the same time, I expect some of you will share parts hidden deep within (as I write this, the site is still not up) This is why although I ask for accurate information when you sign up, it is kept private and only your pseudo name is public.
The purpose of this site is to help you complete your healing through God’s grace.
