Many people living in one day at a time recovery understand the need we have for our lives to become mature. Those of us who are older know that just because we grow up (or get older) it doesn’t mean we have matured. Often the control freak who lives inside of us will retard our maturity as much as it possibly can. In other words we have difficulty with maturing in regards to our levels of flexibility and adaptability and when we cannot be flexible or adapt to reality the struggles of anxiety’s cumbersome grip causes havoc with our peace of mind. This becomes the reality of accepting reality which is to simply let things and other people be as they may. In other words we just need to let it go. This simple act really makes life easier. It’s a tried and tested reality. We know this. Welcome to reality. Welcome to growth. We now understand what grace is. Both giving and receiving. Peace.
