Some of us living in one day at a time recovery get to understand that our recovery is a subtle transformation. We become a bit more at peace with ourselves learning not only to accept those things we cannot change but we also learn to appreciate the subtle transformations in our beings as we become a bit more developed in life in its complexities and subtle possibilities. For some of us we stop transmitting the abundance of pain that oozed from our torn and battered egos. We get to understand the realities of grace and gratitude. In truth this is a gift from our relationship with the other and we did little to nothing to merit such a gift. One day at a time recovery makes us capable of accepting it. Humility reveals to us we will attain growth but not perfection. Recovery becomes a subtle transformation. It’s part of reality. Peace.
