Very well put Ryan. I still lose sight of the ebb and flow thing from time to time and you’re comment on this post came at such a great time for me. Thank you.

Thank you so much for writing and posting this. I needed a little something today and I’m really glad I surfed upon it. The idea of ebb and flow is perfectly apt for me right now; it’s true in other facets of life/nature so why not in recovery? As with many things, it seems so obvious once someone else says it. Some days are always gonna be better than others but that’s no reason to it give up everything I’ve fought for and let the demon win. I will win “by any means necessary.” I honestly believe that everything that happens (even these ebb-y blahs days) is ultimately for the best in my spiritual growth. I cheers you with my lemon water, my friend.

G-d written this way is a Jewish custom. We do not write out the word G-d in order to protect it from harm — like being erased or defaced in some manner.
That’s why I do it anyway.
Peace,
