I'm grateful to be alive.

When I was brought back to life after an overdose all I could think of was the heroin that was wasted.

I look back at that moment with sorrow for the man that welcomed death. I didn't know how much life had to offer until I found recovery.

Today I can recognize that my Higher Power had more in store for me on this planet before I meet my maker, and I'm so thankful for the opportunity.
