About Me

My photo
I have recovered from the disease of Alcoholism. I believe there is only one person really,.. everybody. And that peace of mind is everything. -So treat your neighbor as you would treat yourself, because your neighbor IS yourself. I think most of recovery is what I would call common sense, but that learning to be ordinary is a true gift very few people acquire. My ambition is to accept everything unflinchingly, with compassion, and therefore be intrinsically comfortable in my own skin, no matter what. I am comfortable being uncomfortable and am willing to go to any lengths to improve my life. I believe the Big Book was divinely inspired, and is extraordinarily powerful. Unfortunately AA's best kept secret a lot of the time. (In my opinion). I just try to do what works, no matter what it is.

NOT a 'Financial Awakening'

Chapter 9. THE FAMILY AFTERWARD
page 127
For us, material well-being ALWAYS followed spiritual progress;
it NEVER preceded.

That goes for 'sexual awkenings', 'relationship awakenings' and every other kind of awakening
EXCEPT a SPIRITUAL awakening
