Wise, wise words.

For me, staying connected is the number one most important thing I need to do and be every day. The rest matters, of course, but my god removed the desire and obsession for drink and drugs from me and that's my bottom line. (I sure didn't do it myself.) A friend in recovery often says, I don't take credit for my sobriety, but I do take care of it.
