"I am no longer the person described in the first few pages of the this chapter and I am forever grateful for that. I would never want to go back to that life - a sheltered narrow existence fueled by fear and made liveable by isolation, insulation and self indulgence. It was a life lived in a bubble - but bubbles being a fragile construction are easily destroyed."
From Lucky Man by Michael J. Fox.
The parallels to how I am now to how I was when I got here are similar.
I would not wish a life with an active addict on anyone but that is what brought me here and I am grateful for that.
