LIBERTY
“Liberty means responsibility. That is why most men dread it.”
–George Bernard Shaw
The fellowship of recovering addicts and their families rejoice in the
freedom of life; the exchange of slavery to a drug or person for
liberty; a life of choice, rather than meaningless compulsion.
But with the gift of liberty comes the weight of responsibility. Today I
am responsible for my life. No longer can I say I do not know; no
longer can I blame others for my disease; no longer can I manipulate in
the “playground of denial”.
The spiritual program requires a maturity of lifestyle that involves
responsibility – but the joys are immense.
O Master of liberty and responsibility, let me not forget to laugh.
