Those of us living in one day at a time recovery discover there are times that participating in recovery is really hard. Projects we partake in can become difficult, and at times we become overwhelmed not knowing what to do. We stammer, stutter moving along, uncertain and unknowing what to do. Fear gets in the way making us vulnerable, not knowing how we can help others or even ourselves for that matter. We have been told that we can only keep what we have by giving it away but we cannot give away something we do not have. That is when we learn we need to turn to someone who has what we need and we have to ask for help. Feeling ever so vulnerable, anxious and afraid we reach out. As difficult as it is, we know we need to. It’s reality. Peace.
