Hardships. We feel different. Only after surrender are we able to overcome the alienation of addiction. Our individual circumstances and differences are irrelevant when it comes to recovery. By letting go of our uniqueness and surrendering to this simple way of life, we're bound to find that feel a part of something. And feeling a part of something gives us the strength to walk through life, hardships and all. My hardships do not exclude me from recovery; rather, they draw me to it. - Just for Today, NA daily email (February 1, 2016)
I am thinking about whether I am willing to go to 30 OA meetings in 30 days. I am not doing well on my own and despite a strong sponsor and a strong food buddy, I am still relapsing regularly. I feel like a wilful stubborn child demanding sweets and giving in to the cravings.
