Trust Me

.

“But does trust

require that we

be blind to other

people’s motives

or,

indeed to our own.”

.

As Bill Sees It      p 144

Trust me, but how far? ? ?

Remember, I was an active alcoholic that was

always practicing the art of lying, cheating and stealing.

Today, I would like to say that I am always as honest as Abe,

however, I have been know to relapse

into that old stinking thinking and I should be trusted

only as far as the next prayer and or meeting that we

say together or attend together.

Repeat after me,

“Trust is earned, one sober step at a time.”

Recovery is  learning how to trust.

Sobriety is a blessing from a Higher Power.

Inventory Taking

.

“Inventory taking is

not always done

in red ink.

It’s a poor day indeed

when we haven’t

done something

right.”

.

As Bill Sees It    p 80

.

The negative thinking, pessimistic drunk is always

looking for the worst in things while the recovering

alcoholic must learn to see the positive side of things.

Remember, not having a drink, one day at a time

is the most positive thing that a drunk can do on any given day

and for that his daily inventory should end with a positive.

Recovery is to have gratitude for the things done right.

Sobriety is a blessing from a Higher Power.
