Having To Know

[roverl0616]

Life is full of so many things that we'll all never be able to know about. No one really knows why we're all here or where it is we all come from or what's going to happen next, or even why we all were created to begin with. Yet here we all are living life without being able to have answers to these and many more unknowns that come from living life. For all of us in recovery and anyone who has this problem this is where our problem stems from us having to know these things that no one knows. By some means of trying to find comfort for ourselves we all have told ourselves we knew things that we didn't know and then started to belief these things for ourselves. This is where all of us got into trouble in something we knew nothing about that's way over our heads. Recovery helps all of us with this by first telling us it's okay that we don't know, and that it not meant for any of us to have to know these things and all that we have to do to in order to find comfort is to try to know and understand ourselves as best as we can. For most of us this was something new not having to know everything about something no one knows anything about, and this relieves all of us of so much pressure that we all were putting on ourselves that comes from having to know.
