Comparing Ourselves Right Out The Door

[roverl0616]

It is so easy for any one of us to compare ourselves right out the door of recovery, and no matter who we are, or how far any of us have come in recovery, none of us are ever exempt from doing this, and all of us have to be careful not to, or we'll all be headed for trouble once again if we do. What we all have in common is where we all draw our strength from, and while there will always be things about each one of us, that none of us like, or that rub some us the wrong way, we should never focus on these things, because for all of us our connection to recovery is one that is fragile, and will be in great danger if we do this. Sometimes it takes a great effort on our part not to do this, but we're all worth doing this for ourselves, because there is nowhere else any of us can go and get what we're all able to get from recovery. Let's all look past all these differences so we can see what we all have in common, and if we can we'll all be safe by doing this, and if we can't we'll be able feel ourselves being pulled right out of recovery by comparing ourselves out. None of us are ever immune from thinking that we're different from one another in recovery, but in reality we're all very much same even though for most of us we like to think that we're not., and by us choosing not to look at all that is different, we're all then able to see what we all have in common, and that's no different for any of us.
