KEEP IT SIMPLE #essentialsofrec #Recovery #Moments


We do not remember days, we remember moments.

~ Cesare Pavese 

It’s the moment that’s important. Each moment holds choice. Our spirits grow through working our program moment to moment. Moments lead to days, days to years, and years to a life of honest recovery.

It will be the moments of choice that we remember. The moment we call a friend instead of being alone. The moment we decide to go for a walk instead of arguing with our partner. The moment we decide to go to an extra meeting instead of drinking or using other drugs. These moments lead us to our Higher Power. These moments teach us that we’re human, that we need others. At these moments, we know others care about us— our joys, and our struggles.

Prayer for the Day

Higher Power, help me remember that my recovery is made up of many moments of choice.

Today’s Action


I’ll look back over the last twenty-four hours. What moments come to mind? Why were they important to me?
