So three years ago, I went to Italy and I was in the most beautiful place with my feet grounded in the sand.

looking over the mediterranean it was sparkling like diamonds were dancing i mean it was and then i turn around and i look at the marble mountain a mountain made out of marble okay and i was just in there and

This whole scene just made me well up.

And that's why I call the treatment center Carrara Treatment, Wellness and Spa.

Because I named it after the town Carrara that I was in.

It was one of the most magical times I've ever had.

Now, I had a glass of wine.

Okay.

And I'm sober.

Right.

But I asked the guy to pair my food.

Never had it.

I wanted to pair the food and well, there was one dish, but he did it.

And I'm drinking the wine and about halfway through the glass, I feel it.

And I went like this, I pushed the glass away to the center of the table.

And my thought was, this feels nice.

This is nice.

Now, what the addict brain does is this feels nice.

More is better.

That's the addict mind.
