A Message of Hope - What Does Being "Happy, Joyous and Free" Even Mean?
with Carol Ann M

Recovery is like riding a bicycle. When we begin, we lose our balance, hit obstacles and often fall.

As we learn more about our bodies, how to use the tools (bicycle or 12-Step program) and negotiate our environment, we fear less and fall less even though challenges still exist. We are not cured from our addiction in the same way. Gravity and obstacles may lead Olympians to fall during a race.

Our program, like our bike, takes us places. We ask where do we want to go? We further ask, what do we want from life? What is spiritual progress? In time, the promises become fulfilled among us; we experience a new freedom and a new happiness.

Join us as Carol Ann shares her experience and strength of being "Happy, Joyous and Free" as a result of 25 years in recovery, service and the development of a women's double-digit meeting (more than a decade in recovery).
