Some people living in one day at a time recovery are people who lived in the unreal world of delusional beliefs. This does not mean that we ourselves are delusional, or that we are the delusions ourselves, it means our thinking was a bit messed up. Our first and foremost delusional thought was that we thought that using substances was a way to enlightenment. When we found abstinence, and then recovery, we discovered we could have never been more mistaken. We had to accept that maybe, just maybe, our thoughts were unwell and to get well we had to discover a life of one day at a time recovery. When the fog clears we honestly understand, “The journey is beginning” . Knowing this recovery finds us and we discover humility and that we have much to learn. We take a moment and we breathe. Life unfolds as it should. Peace.
