Living In The Moment helps us dispel regrets from our past, it keeps us from creating worries about tomorrow. We Live In This Moment: we no longer borrow from tomorrow because now is where Reality exists. As using addicts, we were trying to escape our Lives, past, present and any future we might have had. While using drugs we were actually committing suicide on a time payment plan.

Some of us regretted waking up to the next morning, only to start the cycle all over again. After arriving at Narcotics Anonymous, our past seemed to catch up with us. We were no longer moving targets and this state of inertia overwhelmed and scared us.

The members that arrived before us, told us to Stay In The Day. They told us that fantasy is where our heads are at, and Reality is where our feet are at. We learn to work and Live the Spiritual Principles contained in the Steps and Traditions.

We learn to turn our Will and Lives over to the Care of the God Of Our Own Understanding. Yes, N.A. is a Program for learning. We get to revisit our past, and through the Steps we begin the Process of repairing the wreckage of our past.

We change a little every day with the help of our Higher Power, Sponsors and the Fellowship. As we continue on this Spiritual Journey, our present becomes liveable, and we stop creating chaos. We work on ourselves, and our futures become one of Hope. Our present becomes our past, and we secure our futures.

We Live a Life of Love and Service to our Loved ones and society in Narcotics Anonymous and society in general. We're finally experiencing Living Life, Happy, Joyous and Free.

Just For This Moment.
