Those of us living in one day at a time recovery often see that we are living a life of unwavering reality. This unwavering reality is that we are human beings. We are human beings who live in a life of constant change but in all reality no matter how much things change we will always need the reality of human connection, human concern, and human companionship. Another constant is we need to experience love from the other. If we do not know who or what the other is, it is our reality of God, the spirit, the energy, or the universe in whom we are inextricably connected with all things and with all people. We learn we are a part of and not a part from. Many will be greater than us but we will be less than none. Perhaps this is the reality of divine love or perhaps it is just an unwavering reality which in its reality ask us to show love, mercy, compassion, and grace to those we share our lives or our beings with. Reality never wavers. It’s a gift.
