It sure is (((((((((((KimmyDawn))))))))))) It amazes me every day the great things things I missed out on by dissociating my days away.

I take a friends kids to the park and instead of spending time in my imagination of feeling like being on a swing I can actually stay aware and get on a real world swing and experience of the aspects and the joys of swinging that in my imagination I could not possibly experience.

Instead of letting someones voice in the distance upset me into dissociating I can say "ok that reminds me of bla bla bla and that was a long time ago and look at me now sitting here enjoying watching the ducks eat the food I brought them and playing my guitar which before I could only do when I was acting out the memory of my playing a guitar years ago, I can feel t he strings and hear the indiviual notes when I play the melody instead of the chords" Having integrated memories is great. I can do so much more now. I like the word "integrated" now that I understand it. But I didn't years ago.

So happy for you ((((((((((((KimmyDawn)))))))))))))
