Given that today is July 4th, American Independence Day, I thought I would share this picture.
The original concept is not mine. It was sent to me by a friend in program.
I thought it highlighted some of the paradoxes of recovery.
Thank you!
In love and service,

Thank you for your thoughtful comments!
The paradox of recovery, is that until we surrender and admit our dependence on a Higher Power, we cannot be independent and free from the food.
YES! It is dependence on G-d that makes for “independence”. Independence from others, from things and even from self imposed ideas.
Yes! Thank you for your thoughtful comments.
