Inner peace
This isn’t something that you can buy or get through external commodities. It’s something that ultimately comes from within one’s self.
Getting recovered for me is about getting inner peace. That is why I’m grateful to be an alcoholic. Without being an alcoholic and going into recovery and getting recovered from alcoholism then I would have never been aware or even contemplated the word serenity.
Once I experienced serenity as a consequence of recovery and the spiritual awakening that it led to then it is the state of mind I love the most. To be at peace is all I can ask and it’s where I am at my most grateful.
Grateful to be sober, grateful to be an alcoholic
