Many people living in one day at a time recovery understand finding, and maintaining, the simple reality of abstinence. This discovery reveals to us that the past unmanageability of our own lives had left us full of a fearful desperation but when we experienced abstinence we discovered the meaning of living in the reality of hopeful, doable lives. In other words we began to live manageable lives and we became free from the scourges of active addiction. Living in abstinence becomes the simplest of our desires. With a bit of time of living in abstinence we became people living in recovery which guides us into reality. We find reality in the rooms of recovery. We also find grace and humility. Join us. Peace.
