You have to welcome failure in the beginning of your recovery. We can’t just break down at the first site of a little trouble. Sobriety isn’t easy. Mending broken bonds may take time. We as addicts tend to seek immediate results when we become sober. That isn’t how it works. Your family doesn’t want to hear that your sober. They want to see you live it. Some things are aren’t able to be mended. We need to recognize what we can change and makes moves on the things we can actually do something about. #StaySober

You never know who is reading. Share your recovery journey. You could help someone else who’s hurting! Invite friends here. This is a safe space.

Having a higher power is really the key to sobriety. Now that can be whatever it is you consider to be of higher value! Your higher power is completely up to you! Maintaining faith is a key essential part of recovery you cannot by pass. Some use AA/NA as their higher power. Some use the great G.O.D method which is fine and works for millions. The point is to give in to your higher power and trust it to guide you through the process of recovery. #WECANSTAYSOBER

Sometimes it seems more often then not things do not go “our way” These are the moments you are supposed to find strength. One thing after another can kind of weigh down on the shoulder area so to speak. Those who never have to experience and endure failure will never know what it is to lose. Or what it feels like to obtain everything you once lost. Those who are not familiar with loss break easy. Take your days on the road as experience in loss. A lesson in what NOT to do. Use it as strength. Be better than before. You have the ultimate blueprint in your mind of the things you shouldn’t be involved in. Use it. #Wegetbetter
