What many of us living in one day at a time recovery eventually come to understand is that we are nothing more than humble addicts. It’s our inner-most reality whether we are living in recovery or not. It is our reality when we admit to our brokenness and we reach out for help. It’s the foolish ones among us who think that we can be spiritually fit enough to be preachers or gurus. Even those among us who believe that all recovering people are inextricably connected with each other, and that it is grace alone that has brought us into recovery. What we discover is it is the gift of desperation that brings us together even though it might take us many years to really understand. When we understand this, we understand grace. It’s our humble reality. Peace.
