Ever see yourself in a movie?

I just did.

Movie starts with a guy laying on the floor of his apartment. Alarm clock wakes him and he stumbles about ending up in the bathroom washing the blood out of his hair from where he had fallen and cut his head.

Chills ran down my spine as that was me two years ago. I woke up on the floor of my shop with my head in a pool of blood. I had fallen and gashed my scalp. I had no insurance and didn't want to call 911. I was still drunk and couldn't drive to the ER. I went through a roll of paper towels stopping the bleeding but, it finally stopped. I cleaned myself, and the shop, up and got ready for another day.

I am so glad that is not me anymore.

The troubles we create.

I'm really glad you're here and didn't have any permanent damage.

I'm glad it's not you anymore, either.

That wasn't the real you anyway! The real you is happy, sober and free!
