This little book seeks to pass along some funny stories, witty and transformative thoughts, and wise counsel from the minds and mouths of recovery meeting attendees--people who are in the trenches, slaying the beast of addiction one day at time. We hope they will make you smile, think, laugh, cry-maybe a little like being at an addiction recovery meeting. The quotations included here are from real travelers on Recovery Road and were compiled over many years in recovery meetings. The sentiments are raw, the experiences are real, and the speakers are captured in their most human moments. The book is organized into three chapters for a specific reason. At meetings, members are often encouraged to describe their experiences in three parts: what their life was like in addiction; what happened to bring them to the point of wanting to make a change; and what life has been like in recovery. Following this structure, Recovery Road is organized into three chapters that roughly follow these groups of experiences. To keep it light and fun, most pages in the book feature a stunning black and white nature photo by a skilled (and recovering) nature photographer. There are over 140 photos for you to enjoy!We hope you are moved by the book and will consider buying an additional copy for a friend (CLICK ON THE BUY FOR OTHERS OPTION on the right side of the product listing and enter the email address of your gift recipient).
