I once wondered why so much of my life was eaten up by addiction. I have always felt it was unfair that I lost so much time and experienced so much pain. While this may be true, what actually is fair in this life? I have come to the realization that it takes the time that it takes, and unfortunately, the disease did steal a lot of my life, nevertheless, this thief can steal no more…. The remaining days of my life are precious and intensified. It is up to me to make each one special. I have regrets no doubt, yet these regrets are steppingstones to higher ground, and I plan to reach the mountain top.
