Now before you say, "this fool is psychotic", hear me out.
When my mind is stuck in the past, I'm full of resentments, guilt, and pain.
When my mind is stuck in the future, I'm full of anxiety, worry and stress.
So, the beginning of my spiritual experience is the knowledge that living "one day at a time" is really helping me cope with my addiction because there is peace in the "right now".

"The past is history, the future a mystery, but today is a gift - - that's why it's called "The Present" ". -
