      I
      myself
      have
      had
      a
      significant
     
     
      spiritual
      awakening.
      I've
      begun
      to
      cul-
     
     
      tivate
      a
      very
      elementary
      belief
      in
      a
     
     
      higher
      power,
      for
      the
      first
      time
      in
      my
     
     
      life.
      I've
      been
      a
      skeptic
      and
      self-
     
     
      avowed
      atheist
      my
      entire
      life,
      so
      it
     
     
      hasn't
      been
      easy
      and
      it
      had
      to
      be
      logi-
     
     
      cal.
      Based
      on
      reading
      about
      the
      phe-
     
     
      nomenon
      of
      anthropic
      coincidences,
     
     
      referring
      to
      many
      features
      of
      the
      laws
     
     
      of
      nature
      seerh
      arranged
      as
      to
      encour-
     
     
      age
      the
      emergence
      of
      life
      (for
      more
     
     
      information,
      rub
      the
      magic
      internet
     
     
      lamp).
      I
      used
      to
      squirm
      at
      the
      mere
     
     
      mention
      of
      anything
      that
      smelled
      of
     
    
   
   
    
     
      "God"
      or
      religion,
      but
      now
      I'm
      open-
     
     
      ing
      my
      mind
      (read:
      open-mindedness)
     
     
      and
      finding
      much
      serenity.
     
    

    
     
      My
      life
      has
      improved
      consid-
     
     
      erably
      and
      I
      have
      much
      to
      be
      grateful
     
     
      for.
      I've
      been
      reunited
      with
      my
      family.
     
     
      I've
      been
      freed
      from
      constant
      obses-
     
     
      sion
      about
      using.
      I've
      been
      released
     
     
      from
      pseudo-friendships
      that
      were
     
     
      based
      on
      co-dependency.
      I've
      been
     
     
      able
      to
      be
      an
      honest
      person
      for
      the
      first
     
     
      time
      in
      longer
      than
      I
      can
      remember
     
     
      and
      I've
      grown
      closer
      with
      my
      true
     
     
      friends
      because
      of
      it.
      I
      like
      my
      life
     
     
      more
      than
      I
      ever
      did
      when
      I
      used
      to
     
     
      escape
      my
      problems.
      I'm
      even
      starting
     
     
      to
      genuinely
      love
      myself,
      another
      first.
     
    

    
     
      I
      still
      sometimes
      feel
      uncom-
     
     
      fortable
      in
      my
      new
      shoes,
      but
      on
      the
     
     
      whole
      being
      sober
      gets
      a
      little
      easier
     
     
      everyday.
