“Be not afraid of life. Believe that life is worth living, and your belief will create the fact.”
Nearly all of us refer at sometime to being on a “honeymoon of recovery.” Whether we call it a “honeymoon” or “being on a pink cloud,” the experience is the same. The recovery honeymoon is a natural state of well-being after we "get the monkey off our backs."
The sensation of living on a pink cloud never has to leave us, but we can only keep it by moving into positive action and working our Program. This is a time of being physically, emotionally, and spiritually at peace with society and ourselves. It has been described as a time of joy that makes us feel we are climbing out of darkness into light. Like other miracles of recovery, pink clouds are reality, not fantasy.
“I can keep living on my “pink cloud” of recovery if I keep working at it and practicing gratitude and humility.”
