Many people living life one day at a time know the meaning of discovering real recovery. In all our pomposity many of us believe that we, by our own accord, can conquer or overcome our shadow self, in spite of all evidence contrary to such beliefs. When we finally come to terms that the shadow self has been a part of us for many years we might even learn that all people including ourselves are imperfect. When we understand this we understand that the need for universal grace is a universal reality. Everyone needs a break, including ourselves. We can let go of the facade and embrace the beginning of living real recovery. Real growth will, or has begun. It’s a gift. Peace.
