I've had the same sponsor since I first walked into AA.

But I'm an a space now that ...

I need to speak from within the program about this life -
with someone with an equivalent ...
chronology of years and life experience.

So I have a different sponsor.

But - being part Native American -
this is how it's done.
Your mom sends you to spend the summer with an Auntie ...
until you learn something ...
then you go back home.

That's how it's done within Clans ...

My *original* sponsor is *still* my sponsor.
Im just aligned with another woman for now.

I call 'em 'step sponsors'.

LOL
