Working Towards Serenity on a Daily Basis
February 7, 2011
Many of us have felt like we were different at some point in our lives, even in the rooms of A.A./N.A. Sometimes this may be because we didn’t face the consequences some people faced, we didn’t lose our family, friends, and/or jobs. A lot of times we’ve even taken pride in setting ourselves apart from others.
Our admissions coordinators are available 24/7 to answer any questions you may have as you consider whether treatment at Clearbrook Treatment Center is right for you or your loved one.
But this is the wrong way of thinking. When having this mindset, we isolate ourselves thus making it difficult to hear the message and work a program. It doesn’t matter that we didn’t lose as much as someone else or that we didn’t use the way someone else did. We are all there because we suffer from the same disease. All of us could NOT use successfully. We all have a common problem. We are NOT different.
Once we open our eyes, we see that we actually have a lot in common with those around us. We quickly see the similarities. We are all working the 12-step program. We are all striving for change. We are all striving to be happy, joyous and free. When we let go of isolating ourselves, we can then share our experience, strength and hope with others. This is one of the many wonderful gifts of the program.
