Those of us who have been around the rooms of recovery for a long time are often people that cause other people to have resentments. We are the ones who others might believe are a bit daft, a bit weak, or a bit feeble, and we might be. In our reality, if we know what reality is, we will tell you our truth which is we know we are. The sad thing is that we have had or have our resentments too. Our experience has taught us to let go of them easier which is never really easy. We just have or have had more practice at acceptance from a developed wisdom which for all of us is learned knowledge from our pain and our mistakes. Whenever we are living in one day at a time recovery we are never separated from this wisdom for very long. The bottom line is to remain abstinent one day at a time. Our reality is not to leave before the miracle happens and that miracle is the freedom of one day at a time recovery for ourselves and others in the rooms of recovery. It is an inextricable hope for all of us who have been around for a while. It’s no longer just about us. We finally see that. That’s the way it’s supposed to be. Peace.
