I take for granted that I'm honest now. I was a lying bstrd before. I lied like I took breath. I couldn't figure out why my relationships didn't work. Why my family and friends weren't fully committed to our relationships.. I couldn't face me in the mirror..
Today by God's Grace and AA I have learned that my sobriety is contingent on my ability to come clean. I am not always perfect but when I take inventory or hear that voice saying..fix this...I eventually gotta respectfully and appropriately tell my friend or family what's what and why. Cuz I really Care now. It's more than just sobriety, I mean my Sobriety is everything but I love loving people and being truly present for their lives. For this I am truly grateful

That’s awesome. I didn’t want to at first, but I have learned to trust the recovery process. I am forever grateful for that now. I have a life that is beyond my imagining.

I wish I could take the credit..I truly believe AA NA Alanon given to me by God as I understand God give me the strength courage and wisdom to share what I do. There really are 12 action steps written out in the original Big Book. With a sponsor or if absolutely necessary on our own we can do the steps. But I highly recommend a sponsor who speaks action steps from the big book not platitudes everyone says..
Thank you Matt. I appreciate your words. I also think your pic is coolest I've seen here Elwood!
