Many people living in one day at a time recovery understand the reality of living in quiet times of fear. We were told in early recovery that people who lived to use and used to live often were afraid. Most of our fears stemmed from uncertainty especially when we felt the need to be in complete control of everything. We call this self-centered fear. A little bit of faith and trusting in the reality that God, the spirit, or the universe is and always was in control helps us to maybe even let go and trust in the process. Most things usually work out okay. When we are living with fear and we express this fear to a friend it helps to ease this fear. Often talking with another helps us to adapt and eases our fear. Prayer helps too. Have faith and reach out. Why? Because it works. Peace.
