Meditations on "Truth"

We are not always the best judge of what confidences need to be held or which need to be disclosed.

Steadily moving forward in recovery is not easy. As we awaken out of the haze of years in addiction our minds are often filled with memories of things done to us and things we have done to others.

Persons like us, who have been living in an addictive lifestyle, seldom consider what is happening in the lives of our family or friends.

When guard rails are erected, they are put there to protect people from the danger that is on the other side of the rail or rails.

One of the keys to a successful and stable recovery is practicing gratitude.

When we come into recovery, one of our priorities has to be sorting life according to what is true.

In the Bible Jesus told a story about a father and two sons.

To live with wisdom in recovery requires humility. We need to acknowledge, “I don’t really know what is best for me but I’m willing to try new ways and learn from the experience of others.

Co-dependency is a relationship addiction. People who are co-dependent often form relationships that are one-sided, emotionally destructive, and often abusive.

God knows we can’t find our way on our own and that it’s impossible for us to consistently choose to behave in healthy ways, no matter how much we want to.

We started lying a long time ago to cover up and hide from the truth.

How far is the east from the west? It is a distance we can never travel and a destination we can never reach.
