“It does not matter how slowly you go as long as you do not stop.”

Slowly moving forward is a source of encouragement that fuels our ability to continue in recovery. Every day is different. Some Days you feel strong, and recovery may seem like a breeze. Other days, recovery is hard, and your urges, cravings and temptations feel so powerful. Simply refusing the opportunity to use today is progress. It gives you the opportunity to have a better and easier tomorrow. Every day that you refuse the opportunity to use, you allow the next day to be better. The only urge that lasts forever is the one you give into.

Today, feel good about the progress you are making. You are one step closer to a better tomorrow.
