Many of us living in one day at a time recovery spend a fair amount of time watching the world smile. In the really real of recovery many of us join in with the world as it smiles ever so happy to feel the warmth of its peace and the freedom we find in one day at a time abstinence. We do so in the joy we share with family, friends, other recovering people, and the world at large. This joy is a kinship that holds back the miseries and demands of a messed up world helping us to desire little of life’s obsessive wants. We learn to love people and use things, not use people and love things. We also learn to feed each other unless we starve and to see the love and good in we. It’s a gift. Peace.
