Just For Today
Recovery @ home_______________January 5th 2008
We can enjoy our families in a new way & may become a credit to them instead of an embarrassment or a burden
We're doing great in recovery, aren't we?
We go to a meeting every day, we spend every evening with our friends in the fellowship, & every weekend we dash off to a service workshop, but if things are falling to pieces at home, we are not doing so great after all.
WE expect our families to understand, after all, we're not using drugs anymore. Why don't they recognise our progress?
Don't they understand how important our meetings, service & involvement with the fellowship are?
Our families will not appreciate the change NA is working in our lives unless we show them.
If we rush off to a meeting the same way we did to use drugs what has changed?
If we continue to ignore the needs & desires of our family, failing to accept our responsibilities at home, w aren't
"practising these principles in all our affairs"
WE must live the program everywhere we go, in all we do, if we want the spirirtual life to be more than a theory, we have to live it at home
When we do this, the people we share our lives with are sure to notice the change & be grateful that we've found nA
