Life changing experiences?

1 Answer

Answer :

I’ve had two major life changing experiences thus far in my 23 years of life. The first was getting clean. I was doing speed on a daily basis, and when I became clean, I realized many things that I had always done wrong; stealing, lying, cheating; and since I have become clean I have worked really hard on no longer doing these things in my daily life. The second life changing experience I’ve had is having my daughter. For obvious reasons – she is the only thing that matters to me now.
