The life of recovery from substance abuse isn’t for everyone.
Some try to recover until they feel better physically and then decide that the misery isn’t so bad. They go back for more.
Some try to recover to appease someone else. Eventually that pressure eases and they return to the comfort and misery of substances.
Those of us who are desperate, honest, and willing seem to find long-term recovery.
Recovery isn’t for those who need it as much as it is for those who want it.
God, please help me to want to be sober more than anything else.
God, please help me to be ok today. Thank You. Amen.
