Some people living in one day at a time recovery understand the reality of living with narcissistic egos. This is the reality of needing to be in control because we are usually functioning at a level where we have great difficulty of being able to let go. Not being able to function at a level of trusting in the process or being terribly afraid that your whole life is going to hell in pieces is a horrendous thing to live with with. It happens to men, women, and children and is more than likely present at the very least in the egoic imaginings of all people. If we do not learn to function at a healthy level our lives will fall apart. We need to let go because we do love, we do care, and we do know that life is not just about us. A narcissistic ego is not necessarily a narcissistic life. It’s what living in one day at a time recovery is all about. We no longer just survive and surviving was what we were doing. Though it might be difficult for us we understand grace and we know the meaning of grace. Peace.
