What many of us who live in one day at a time recovery eventually learn is that we need to have a little less fire in our recovery and we need to share a lot more love. We are not the be all and end all to people caught in the struggles of active addiction but when the fire of recovery is strong within us we write our books, do our talks, proclaim our proclamations, and aim our sails towards our own personal salvation endeavors. We might even be so foolish as to believe that our lives have been unsoiled to point that we are role-models for others to lean on but in time reality sits in. We’re just people who need love and love always takes work. The fire will cool and we will accept this. It’s a universal truth. We become kinder, gentler people. Peace.
