“Happy, joyous, and free” isn’t a mood. It’s not a nonstop emotional high. It’s not pretending life is perfect or that pain disappears in recovery. It’s a spiritual condition — one that grows when we stop fighting life, stop running from ourselves, and stop trying to control outcomes.
For many of us, happiness was something we chased. Joy was something we tried to manufacture. Freedom felt impossible. Recovery teaches us that these things aren’t achieved by force — they’re experienced as a byproduct of honesty, surrender, and living in alignment with God’s will instead of our own.
In today’s Daily Trudge, we talk about:
What “happy, joyous, and free” really means (and what it doesn’t)
Why chasing happiness keeps us restless
How joy grows out of acceptance and gratitude
What real freedom looks like in sobriety
Why peace matters more than pleasure
How living spiritually grounded changes how we experience life
Why happiness shows up when we stop demanding it
Happy, joyous, and free doesn’t mean life stops being hard.It means you stop being at war with it.
And that’s real freedom
