Join us as Lindsay shares her story of trauma, addiction, alcoholism and recovery - beautiful experience, strength and hope around today's Daily Reflection, Facing Ourselves.
FACING OURSELVES
. . . and Fear says, "You dare not look!"
— TWELVE STEPS AND TWELVE TRADITIONS, p. 49
How often I avoided a task in my drinking days just because it appeared so large! Is it any wonder, even if I have been sober for some time, that I will act that same way when faced with what appears to be a monumental job, such as a searching and fearless moral inventory of myself? What I discover after I have arrived at the other side—when my inventory is completed—is that the illusion was greater than the reality. The fear of facing myself kept me at a standstill and, until I became willing to put pencil to paper, I was arresting my growth based on an intangible.
