I am a father, recovering addict, family man, and friend. I have always enjoyed writing and creating. All my stories are either mine directly or friends and family where I was involved indirectly. Stories we have shared together with names changed to protect privacy at times. My name is Shane Johnson. I never grew up drug addicted but that is where things turned for me. Through recovery I am able to tell my story and some of the others who have impacted my life.

No Filter
No filter. Even now its taken me months to adjust to having a place of my own. Almost 6 years ago I was homeless. Even after I got sober it wasn't right away. I had to wait for certain things in my life. My own home was one. My daughter and I would share my bed when she would stay with me. I rented rooms or stayed with friends & family. I stayed sober though. Waiting for God's answer. Now that I have it I don't know how to say thank you except for service. Gratitude is a word only without action behind it. My name Shane means, " God is Gracious". I get what it means now little by little.
