Many people living in one day at a time recovery understand that the practice of abstinence creates a total shift in being. We become people who were at one time lonely and alone but when we found abstinence we started to feel the connection that we were developing with other recovering people. Another reality we began to feel was we were also beginning to develop a sense of belonging with not just other recovering people but somehow someway we were becoming people who were experiencing a sense of grace form God, the spirit, or the universe and that this grace had kept us safe and alive under its watchful eye and its loving power. We had gone from desperate to grateful in a few blinks of this loving power’s eye. We call this a one day at a time modern day miracle under the reality of freedom. Peace.
