Those of us who are living in one day at a time recovery understand the reality of peace of mind. We understand that peace of mind is neither perpetual happiness or endless serenity. In all reality we can can see that peace of mind is the calm we find when we have come through the other side of emotional, spiritual, and/or economic hardship. It is the joy we experience when it seems all of life’s dots are connecting and it is also the reality of accepting hardships such as divorce, failing physical health, and death. It is the peace we find in one day at a time abstinence and it is the lessening of worry and sleepless nights. To sum it all it up it is the reality of grace which gifts us with the reality of freedom. It’s what one day at a time recovery is all about. Peace
