The following song is haunting. The video is haunting. Please, listen to the song while you read my post.
The name of the song is "It's Never too Late". It's true as long as you are alive. This song is haunting as I could see and hear the sounds of some of the people that I met in rehab. I met many that have tried to kill themselves. Some by overdoses and some by inflicting wounds to themselves. Many of the newcomers to rehab were bruised and battered. Walking around like dead people.
You see, most of the hardened alcoholics and addicts are not afraid of death. Many of them see it as the only way out. They are troubled souls. If you know someone is in trouble, reach out to them. I can tell you that they are afraid to ask for help.
We went through the first 3 of the 12 step process in rehab. My next post will be about the first step. Many never get past it.
See you soon,
Mike
