Many people living in one day at a time recovery understand that even though we have been abstinent for fair amounts of time we know that it is never safe for us to return to active using. People who had been abstinent for long periods of time proved to us that when they had just one drink, puff, snort, or hit it brought with it all chains of active addiction. From what we have witnessed and what we have done we know that using even just once takes us to the places of unmanageability making our lives completely out of control. What we know is it is easier to remain in recovery than it is to find recovery once again. Our witness or our actions are sufficient proof for us. We need to reach out. It’s our saving grace. It works. We know this. Peace.
