YES IT DOES TOO … –
June 19, 2024 – “33 years ago today I found recovery and a tribe that has sustained me on my incredible, grateful journey,” he shared via Instagram at the time. “My life is full of love, family, God, opportunity friends work, dogs and fun.” “It was great. I loved it. Because I was ready,” Lowe shared.
“Problem is, people go into rehab and they’re not ready. You want to get sober for your parents, you want to get sober for your job, you want to get sober for the cops, you want to get sober to protect your image. A lot of good reasons, by the way, but unfortunately, the only thing that works is that you have to want to get sober for you.”
He continued: “I was ready. And so if they told me, ‘Hey, Lowe, you’ve got to go stand in the corner on your head,’ I would have done it.”
“All of my understanding about life has come from getting sober and being in recovery,” he told Variety in a 2021 interview. “The work that you do once you stop whatever it is you’ve been abusing – that’s when the real work begins. And that continues to this day. In many ways, it doesn’t get any easier but it does get more fulfilling.”
