I can't even tell you, I have tears in my eyes right now

because every time I think about it.

My life is much more meaningful now than it's ever been

in the past 10 or 12 years, much more meaningful.

I don't get angry, I don't think about killing myself,

I don't think about hurting others.

Even in my community where I live at,

the kids come around me and they call me Candy Man

because I give them candy.

People on my way to work, they approach me,

they tell me how nice I look, how I dress.

In my job, everybody, they say, "Hey, there's a position

coming open in the company, you should apply for it."

These things never happened to me before.

I used to be holding on to my job by a string.

Now, people want me to further advance, you know,

even as a travel agent in my job.

People now come to me to help plan their vacation,

and they value who I am and what I do.

I'm a new man, and I owe it to CPT treatment and PTSD.
