Feeling Hope In Sobriety And Sharing It With Other Addicts


http://www.pinterest.com/aboveitallca/One of the most beautiful things that most of us see when others get sober and go through the addiction recovery process is that sense of hope and excitement. For many of us to be alive and sober is not only a huge accomplishment but a miracle as well.

Getting Through Hard Times In Addiction


When we were in the middle of our disease most of us had given up hope for living, being sober, or even dreaming of a better life for ourselves. We could not be bothered with something like having hope when we were so wrapped up in the bondage of this disease.  When we get sober and seek help for our addiction, most of us are able to get through the hard times because of others sharing their experience, strength, and hope in regards to their recovery from drug or alcohol addiction.

Sharing Hope With Other Addicts


It is through this exchange that gives us the strength needed to carry on. There is nothing that compares to the moment when we get that first glimpse of hope or that initial feeling that we can do this. Sharing and giving hope to another individual is one of the many beautiful aspects of sobriety.  When we reach out to newcomers and share with them the trials and tribulations that we have gone through and overcome, we not only get to help others but we also get a lifetime of blessings as well.
