I can't tell you how many

times I said,

I said "oh man, I can’t remember

what happened last night

Oh man, we had a blast,

blah blah blah."

And it's like you hear

somebody's second hand,

idea of what happened.

And then it's like, man,

what did I really miss?

And now being sober, it's like,

I don't miss anything.

And it's awesome.

Like, I don’t

want to miss anything.

You know, I want-

The good, the bad, the ugly.

You want to see it.

You do it, you experience it.

You get better from it.

You know, like the

biggest thing with recovery

is just the healing process.

And then building up

the relationships

that you kind of screwed up

while you were drinking,

while I was drinking,

And you go from there and

it's nice, you know,

it's pretty awesome.
