Most people who are living in one day at a time recovery know that you can’t just google recovery. We can argue that we can discover many excellent speakers versed well in recovery topics and that we can read quite a bit of information about living in recovery but it is not the same as in-person support, in-person wisdom, and in-person hugs and handshakes. What we are saying is that google cannot empathize with us or feel with us the reality of in-person settings. Google cannot read our cues or smile with us when we experience milestones, miracles, or joy. What we are saying is that we all need that human touch. It’s just the way it is. And google cannot give us grace. It’s a big help but human growth is done with human beings. You can’t JUST google recovery. Peace.
