The world<br>did not suddenly fall into place when we sobered up<br>but at least we became more sensible, predictable,<br>and trustworthy. Soon we saw that we did have two<br>things that we could absolutely depend upon \u2013 a<br>Higher Power and the Twelve Step fellowships. In<br>fact, they were parts of the same thing because they<br>provided us with the support we needed. Anyone<br>reading the Twelve Steps will see how<br>interconnected they are. In a world where few<br>people live in a conventional family and many rely<br>on medication just to be able to function, we in<br>recovery can count ourselves fortunate. Am I truly<br>grateful for Twelve Step recovery in my life?<\/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-39873248b69e22a4ec8289a6bddf1f6a\"><strong><br>To addicted people, recovery is all about beating<br>addiction, but we should be mindful of the many<br>dedicated people working in general healthcare who<br>cheerfully shoulder the daily responsibility of caring<br>for the sick, regardless of the often-severe cost to<br>themselves.
