Most people living in one day at a time recovery know that life is not perfect. Nonetheless most of us know what it is like to live in the midst of love. When we are living in the midst of love we know the value of self-worth which teaches the reality of inherent dignity which means we treat ourselves, and everyone else, with the respect and the dignity that we expect ourselves to find within a world that lives and thrives within the midst of love. What we discover is compassion and kindness become a part of our life. Both in giving and receiving. When we are living in one day at a time recovery we understand that living in the midst of love is living in the gift of grace. It becomes our reality. Peace.
