Those of us living in one day at a time recovery have learned how to move through difficult times. Moving through difficult times is necessary in order for us to be able to grow. Challenges, grief, heartache, and loss aren’t necessarily just opportunities to grow. They are painful. But the reality is we have to grow to move through them. Challenges we persevere. Grief we process and eventually accept. Heartache we hurt, we lose, and we grieve, and loss, we let it go (just a few thoughts touching on these subjects). More often than not we have to reach out to professionals. Those of us who are in recovery know acceptance and letting go goes a long way in moving through difficult times. It’s difficult. That is why it’s called difficult times. Moving through difficult times teaches us that. God grant us the serenity to accept what we cannot change, courage to change what we can, and wisdom to know the difference.
