decisions, great and small,
as we realize that should
our choice prove wrong we
can, if we will, learn from
the experience.
~ Bill W. ~
As our disease grew, we often felt like any decision we made was wrong. We felt like wrong people. We lost self-respect, because deep inside we knew that, for us, using alcohol and other drugs was wrong. We went against our spirit.
Now we go with our spirit. We follow what we think our Higher Power wants for us. Now we learn from our mistakes. Another wonderful gift has been given back to us: the gift of learning. From this gift, we stop playing God. How free it feels!
