Many people living in one day at a time recovery understand that people who have been unable to find abstinence and therefore one day at a time recovery are in no way less than us. To us those who have been unable to find and maintain abstinence are just not there yet. We feel for those who cannot grasp one day at a time recovery but there appears, at times, there is not much we can do but pray, keep the doors of recovery open, and somehow carry a message of a day at a time recovery when they are ready to hear it. We never know when such an opportunity will arise The very essence of recovery is often evident in us just because we are abstinent. Though others might not be abstinent they are in no way less than us. We know this. Peace.
