Truth

[roverl0616]

It's said that the truth is going to set us free, but it's going to hurt us first. When we're new to recovery we're usually facing the truths about ourselves for the first time in our life's. This can be very painful to do this depending on how long and how much we've been dishonest with ourselves. It's always made easier if we surround ourselves with those who, like us, are also facing the truths about themselves. Truths rarely change, but if they do we'll need to face that as well. The way to go about doing this is always the same and that's by using honesty. The truth may set us free but we'll have to pay the price in being honest first. One thing all of us have learned is being dishonest never really works because the truth eventually always catches up with us.
