We Do Recover

[MajestyJo]

Recovery Is a Learning Proces



Recovery is about learning to love and value yourself enough
to stop destroying yourself. It's about learning to change your
mind and your heart. It's about forgiving yourself and others.
It's about letting go of shame and learning to accept your true
self.

Recovery is about letting go of the lofty expectation of
perfection that you have placed upon yourself and others.
It's learning to love and accept yourself and others
unconditionally.

Recovery is about learning to use your anger as the fuel to
create something good, rather than denying it or holding it
inside until you self-destruct or strike out at another.

Recovery is about learning that you have a choice: You can
choose to be hopeful rather than hopeless; you can choose
to act from faith rather than react from fear; and you can
choose to enjoy life rather than merely survive it.
