You wish you had been able to explore more of what was in there. Going through life without finding out everything you are capable of, is a similar wasted opportunity. Recovery from addiction gives us time to reassess ourselves. How excited would you be to discover that you can sing, paint or write a book? Am I exploring the full extent of my talents?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-black-color has-cyan-bluish-gray-background-color has-text-color has-background has-link-color wp-elements-b4cf558869d09c8e063c288de6b8756b\"><strong>I wasted so much of my life in the mad maze of addiction. Do I really want to settle for the well- worn bits of me that I already know? Why not treat my recovery as the previously unnoticed doorway through which I can reach the secret garden that is the undiscovered me? My own self-realisation is good for me and for the world. I only have this life and every moment is precious. What holds me back from starting this exercise of discovery? Today I ask God to help me find all aspects of myself.<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Follow on TikTok Videos at&nbsp;https:\/\/www.tiktok.com\/@recoverydays?is_from_webapp=1&amp;sender_device=p View VIDEO on Facebook https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/profile.php?id=100094027278120&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Remember Mindfulness \u2013 send positive thoughts Potential for growth If you found yourself in a wonderful museum or art gallery but you only had time to see inside one room, &hellip; <a href=\"https:\/\/recoverydays.com\/?p=1106\">Continue reading <span class=\"meta-nav\">&rarr;<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":689,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[14,17,31,20],"tags":[11,28,23,32],"class_list":["post-1106","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-addiction-recovery-2","category-behavioural-addiction-2","category-daily-inspiration","category-living-skills","tag-addiction-recovery","tag-castle-craig","tag-meditation","tag-recovery-journey"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/recoverydays.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1106","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/recoverydays.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/recoverydays.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/recoverydays.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/recoverydays.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=1106"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/recoverydays.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1106\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":1108,"href":"https:\/\/recoverydays.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1106\/revisions\/1108"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/recoverydays.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/689"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/recoverydays.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=1106"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/recoverydays.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=1106"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/recoverydays.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=1106"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
