Accept Life as It Comes

Acceptance is a big part of my recovery. It's given me peace. When I don't accept things, I hold on to this perception of the what if?

Today when I accept whatever I encounter in life, I get this sense of joy and peace that I used to struggle to attain. I just accept life - what it is today. I don't boast about the gifts that I get back in my life. In sobriety, I get to see the good in my life. Sobriety means accepting life as it comes and being able to move forward in your day. Today I'm very content. This is what my life has developed into.

Today I will move toward acceptance, peace, and joy.

~John F., U.S. Air Force, 1985–1996
