The reality of being people who are living in one day at a time recovery is sometimes we are people who are walking with broken legs. We limp and hobble along knowing that full-well that if we do not reach out for support we could very easily fall flat on our face causing serious harm to ourselves. After we have fallen enough we come to the realization maybe, just maybe, it’s okay to ask for help. Very often we find help in places we never thought we would. Somehow, someway, someone knows what to do and recognizing we are walking with broken legs they either become a temporary crutch to help us once again navigate the reality of recovery one day at a time or they show us where to get the help we need. And when we heal a bit we help others who are walking with broken legs. To receive and to give. One day at a time recovery teaches us this empathetic reality. Peace.
