When we forget the past it is said that we are destined to repeat it. This is a very real statement for alcoholics in recovery. Many of us forget the pain we caused others to endure on our behalf.
Remembering our past is like looking in a rear view mirror. It’s good to look back to see how far we’ve come, but if we look too long we’ll miss what’s right in front of us.
We alcoholics and addicts must look back so that we don’t forget what we were like in the throes of our addictions. The depravity while using alcohol and drugs must not take hold of our lives again. For that reason we never forget what we were like, but we look to the future with the knowledge of our past mistakes so we don’t repeat them.
If we take the first drink or drug we will forget where we came from!
