What is the biggest gift of sobriety?

Acceptance: The first gift of sobriety is the treasure of acceptance, which is absolutely vital to our long-term happiness. It allows us to see what we didn't like before about our circumstances, ourselves and other people for what they are without constantly trying to fix it. Recovery gives us the incredible ability to see ourselves realistically. Contrary to popular opinion, humility does not consist in us considering ourselves humbly.

It's a simple and realistic understanding of oneself, our egos don't get fat or cut back. It comes closer to the feeling of contemplating the thick network of stars in the deep sky of a country, where we all come to understand the natural scale of life. Once we stay sober, we carry this feeling everywhere we go. Seeing friends and acquaintances being sober because I got sober.
