Truly grateful for the opportunity for us to travel to Boston this past weekend. We were very fortunate to have been able to meet some amazing people and share in new experiences together. There was a good chance we added some years onto our lives after all the laughs we were able to have. Thank you again, Boston ❤️ we can’t wait to visit again one day!

“A good friend asked me what happiness meant to me. For a very long time I used to think happiness was a feeling that you would permanently have. This misunderstanding ironically led me to being sad and depressed because my happiness would come and go. Once I matured more mentally and emotionally, I gained a better understanding of what happiness truly was. I now associate that with spending time with loved ones, positive experiences, and reaching goals I’ve set for myself. None of these are permanent but that’s what makes them so special and makes me happy. Happiness to me is something I love to feel and knowing certain things that give me that feeling are what I try to incorporate into my life and schedule as much as possibly can”.

“Before coming to Wilmington and getting into recovery I didn’t realize how abnormal my life was. I’m thankful for this town these people and this program. When I was out I was playing with my life every single day and now I choose my life every single day. I choose to feel instead of numbing things out. I chose to explore my understanding of my Higher Power. We get a choice every day and I’m blessed I got a wake up call. Recovery has taught me a lot about myself and I’m thankful for the opportunity to grow and heal”.

The negative energy that creeps into our life doesn’t have to be a permanent state of being. We are all going to have bad hours and bad days. It is the closest thing to inevitable that exists and recognizing those bad times helps us all appreciate when the really beautiful times come around. Each day isn’t going to be the greatest day of your life but without fail, amazing things will present themselves each and every day if you take a second to look around ❤️

As an only child, friendship is something I have always placed extremely high on my totem pole of importance. At the peak of COVID, when I was 17, I took a huge leap and moved six hours away from everyone I love to pursue a degree in nursing. My mental health took a huge hit and everything seemed impossible. The love of my friends (and my tripod kitty) pushed me to keep working toward my goals and I could not have done anything without them. Today I am working as a registered nurse and am learning everything I can about helping others while still learning to help myself.

“It was good for me to get out of town for a little while. Being around friends and strangers non stop for four days was really helpful for my personal growth and confidence in myself. It was a great reminder that there truly are so many great people in this world who are full of love and care. There wasn’t any judgment or negative energy floating around to bring anyone down. I sometimes get so lost in my own insecurities that I can’t begin to even think about trying to meet anyone new or have a meaningful conversation. The best part was that I could honestly see the personal growth I was experiencing and in real time actively managing the anxiety that I was feeling. All I have ever wanted in my life was to be comfortable with myself and feel like I belonged to something and for the first time in forever, I finally felt a sense of peace and happiness”.

“I always thought the saying “change people, places, and things” was bu****it, until I actually did change. Moving away from everything I knew and where I was comfortable has been an amazing experience. Changing my life at a young age is scary. Moving away from family and friends has been hard, but making those sacrifices has been worth while. I never thought I would be almost 60 days sober. My addiction took over my life and took away everything. Moving to Wilmington has been able to help me get ME back, and starting a new life clean from drugs and alcohol. I know now that there’s a way to live life without needing to be high everyday. And I’m forever grateful for the wonderful people I’ve met so far, and grateful to be sober…just for today”.

Moments of true clarity don’t show up as often as we would like. The small moments are just as critical as the large moments. They all add up to the realization that we are all on the right path to finding our purpose and who we are trying to become. Comparison can be beneficial, but it can also distract you from the inner knowledge that you have accomplished more than you ever thought was possible in your life. When the lightbulb goes on in your life, you realize that anything is possible and you are worthy of a wonderful life. Embrace the positivity wherever you can and know that everything you are doing right now provides the opportunity to create a better today and a beautiful tomorrow.

Kindness is the foundation of connection.
At The Getaway Perch, we’re here to celebrate those small, powerful interactions that remind us we’re never alone. Kindness is how strangers become something more. A shared moment, a kind word—it’s where connection begins.

Thanks, , for providing us an "office space" and a great reminder for the day 💙
