I didn't start to experience things differently until my last rehab. I feel like I was truly ready then. The previous treatments had their moments, but no surrender. It seems surrender made the difference because I began to experience life differently then.
The process of living has much more connection with the world around me. I do experience life in a different way because my senses function better now than when they numbed/diminished by my use of drugs and alcohol.
Nice reminder.
Thanks!
