October 17-Daily Gratitude
I am grateful to know that I am equal to others. Today I will attempt to remain the right size. I pray for awareness of my similarity to others.
When we are using, we think we are different from everyone else. We think that no one understands our situation because we are unique. We think we are better than other people. Our ego creates these delusional thoughts.
When we walk into the rooms of AA/NA and here the stories of others we realize we are not different. We actually realize that all of the people around us are similar in some way or another. We must embrace these similarities because it helps us relate to others and helps others relate to us. Thus making it possible to support each other in the program. So for today, enjoy how equal you are to all of those around you!

I was interested in knowing if there was a representative in N.J. My ex-husband (55 yrs. old) & my son (16 yrs. old) are both struggling with addictions. They are both on a downward spiral. I feel helpless. I live 40 mins. away from them. Can u help? Thank uou, Barbara Smith
