Hey Everyone! Just wanted to check in & share my learning experience for the day. Feelings are temporary and struggling produces growth. Sometimes I feel like I should be further along than I am. I like to think I should be cured and I should no longer have any defects of character. This isn’t reality. I can have a shift in perspective but sometimes those defects are going to pop back in. It’s what I do with them when they do. I can react or I can grow. The choice is mine.
I got an interesting book today at the suggestion of my sponsor. It’s called The Spirituality of Imperfection by Ernest Kurtz & Katherine Ketcham. I’ll let ya know what I think about it.
I hope you all have a beautiful week 🙂

“Faced with alcoholic destruction, we soon became as open minded on spiritual matters as we had tried to be on other questions. In this respect alcohol was a great persuader. It finally beat us into a state of reasonableness.”
Alcoholics Anonymous, page 48 View
Progress not perfection. As long as you’re learning, you’re still progressing. “This is not an overnight matter and should continue for a lifetime.” I’ve heard of the book. Let us know what you think. May have to check it out.
@TheRealBill The book is really good so far. You should check it out.
