This photo was taken in Jackman, Maine during the summer of 2007. I spent two years in the early 1970's in a drug rehab located in Jackman that was more like a concentration camp at times than it was like a drug rehab. This quote describes exactly how I feel about that whole experience. Just for the record, my choice was to let it strengthen me.
What an incredible photo. And attitude.
ReplyDeleteSometimes I go for a fourth option. Denial - (not just a river in Egypt), until I can get my head around the bad thing. At the end of the day I hope I choose door number three as well.
Thank you for your honesty and openness. It is a privilege to read.
Hopefully, someday you can read about my entire experience...it's slowly being put in book form in graphic detail.
DeleteI would LOVE to.
DeleteI'm working on it!
DeleteMy compliments on your fortitude. I am glad you made it safe and sound, here, into the future. I enjoy the company of good minds like yours.

DeleteYou chose the right option....
ReplyDeleteI think so also!
DeleteBeautiful photo! I love Maine! I lived on Sebago Lake for college for 2 years. I'm glad you were able to be strong and make it through that experience. It must've been tough!
