Many of us living in one day at a time recovery understand that when we were using we were always in the the thick of things that revolved around us being able to continue using day in and day out. Our life centered around the damaging and harmful consequences of active addiction. Being in the thick of active addiction we were usually biting off more trouble than we could chew and we were destined to hit bottom. Those of us who survive often found that such bottoms led us into recovery. Broken and desperate we reached out and found ourselves in the thick of recovery. In doing so we found abstinence. Life and recovery become a one day at a time reality. We find the reality of belonging, good health, and freedom. Not everyone gets to experience this. We become grateful and we’ll be okay. We’ve discovered an unconditional saving grace. It’s our new reality. Peace.
