Oh Windblown, I am so happy for you and this makes me feel like The Blues Brothers when they do cartwheels down the aisle in church (I loved that movied, lol).
So I'm shouting "Hallelujah!" and feeling your joy.
This is how it was with me...first tears like I never shed before, tears of surrender when I finally told God that I could not do one more day like this, then huge joy as I let go and moved out of the darkness of addiction and into the light of recovery...and sunrises and sunsets and warm sunny days with beauty I had never noticed before.
I'm doing cartwheels with you because it is energizing to make the decision to live our lives well.
Big huge hugs
