And I have Narcan training this Sunday afternoon. I start Recovery Coach Academy the 15th. I’m working my way through the stack of books I didn’t have time to read when I was working (I had money to buy books when I was working, but no time to read them), I’m working out every day. I’m talking to a solid dude (the behavioral psychologist I met last week at comedy night, the one who made me promise to text him and let him know I got home OK, and who has texted me every day since, the one who asks me “Did you write today?”) and we’re going to get together sometime later this month (after he takes his kid to the Jersey shore, but before the fall term starts cuz he teaches undergrads). All in all, this, right here right now, is a better vacation than any exotic destination or swanky resort.

I’m glad you are enjoying the benefits of recovery. As you get better, life looks and feels better. As you get healthier, you attract healthier people and situations into your life. Life was always good. It’s us that needed to change

Nearly a decade in recovery and I finally realized that A ) the goal isn’t to escape from life, but to build a life you don’t need or want to escape from, and, B ) how to build such a life.
