Honor...  Heal...  Unite 
Be Strong! 

Watch music video below: 


An Artist, Dancer, Creative Spirit designed this flag for so many reasons....

The purpose of the Recovery Flag design is to honor and respect all victims of physical, psychological, emotional suffering, and death.   It draws attention to the prevalence of violence, encourages action and acknowledges survivors.  It also symbolizes a positive, unified response to mass casualty victims, disasters, or your own personal healing process such as cancer, emotional abuse etc.  
​
The flag 
is symbolic art and a unique cultural icon.  It is bold and full of meaning and welcomes individual interpretation.  The Recovery Flag is a voice for individual or group victims everywhere to help with the healing process.

​​I Am Recovering  

Life’s been tough, but I stand tall.
Strength in my heart. Fire in my soul. 
I’ll keep moving. I won't give in.
Recovery’s a journey deep within. 

With every breath, I start anew.
A stronger me, breaking through.
 
I am recovering! 
 
This is my fight. Time to be free.
Healing wounds; Rediscovering me.
Step by step, I mend my scars.
Rebuild my dreams from broken parts.

Finding a strength thought I’d never find.
A power filled chapter enters my life.
 
I am recovering!
 
It’s not forgetting. It’s not denial.
Just trying to breathe for a while.
Healing’s a process.  I’m in control. 
Rebuilding my spirit. Soothing my soul.
 
Maybe I’ll miss the good old days.
But I can be happy in a different way.
 
I am recovering!

American Flag and Recovery Flag
Picture

I am an American artist and I created the Recovery Flag.   I also wrote and produced the song: "I M Recovering" for you!   (Listen above)
Sadly, we've had too many tragic incidents with mass casualties, and we lowered the American flag out of respect.  I subsequently wondered if lowering the American flag to half-mast on too many occasions might erode the symbolic value of lowering the flag.  That's when I was thunderstruck with the idea of creating a specific flag or art work to acknowledge and convey respect and honor to all victims.  That idea evolved into the Recovery Flag art design.  Victimization relates to physical, psychological, emotional and spiritual pain and suffering.    Additionally, the Flag also represents the plight of personal recovery from life's challenges including addictions, health, loss of a loved one -- a myriad of personal challenges.  
Over the years, I hope the Recovery Flag becomes an engine for commemoration, discovery, and healing. 


.....Thank you for your interested in the Recovery Flag.  I have now made a few Flags available on this site!
