I didn't get clean to be miserable
When your blessed enough as I am, you begin to see each day of your new life as a gift. Everything isn't always perfect, but that is the way it is, no matter who you are. We live life on lifes terms and as soon as we accept that, we begin to find peace and serenity in our lives. We choose to live in the solution and not the problem. Our glass is half full and for that we have great gratitude. We welcome the new day rather than dread it. We learn how to live and enjoy ourselves without the use of mind altering substances. We learn to feel again.We welcome the joy and we accept the sorrow, but we feel again. We've suffered enough. It is our turn to live, and along the way it is our duty to give hope to the addict who still suffers, and show them through our recovery ,that there is truly a better life awaiting them.
