This collection is not about answers. It is about witness — and it is about rise. A witness to addiction and recovery, to the unshakable humanity of those who struggle, the quiet endurance of those who love them, and the radiant light that appears when they rise again.
These essays hold space for it all: the grief, the persistence, the relapse, the return — and, most importantly, the rise and the perseverance. They remind us that survival, even when fractured and imperfect, is still holy.
Here you’ll find the strength of families who refuse to stop hoping. The beauty of those who rise again after addiction. The truth that relapse is not failure, but part of the fight. And woven through every page is a single heartbeat: hope has a pulse.
This is for the light of the ones we lose too soon. For the resilience of the ones who stay. For the sacred persistence of those who rise again and again. And for the most extraordinary ones still in their becoming.
