Many people living in one day at a time recovery found the act of sensibly surrendering to the belief that they just had to stay clean and sober for one day at a time made it possible that they could live in recovery for many, many years. Reality and desperation made it possible for many of us to follow their lead. We found one day, one day, one day lead to long-time recovery for many of us who followed their example. All we could say to ourselves is it simply made sense and it was simple enough to do. Many of us in recovery believe that sensibly surrendering to one day at a time recovery is an absolute truth. If you haven’t already, give it a try. It’s worth it. Peace.
