A thank you

to all here for your support and experience and advice around working the Fourth Step.

I did my Fifth Step today.

Things are pretty clear for me now..I am grateful to my sponsor for her sharing today..I am not unique..I am not alone.

With much love and respect..

Karen

It was a great relief for me to know that I am not unique. I am glad you did it.

1. Once we have taken this step, withholding nothing, we are delighted.
2. We can look the world in the eye.
3. We can be alone at perfect peace and ease.
4. Our fears fall from us.
5. We begin to feel the nearness of our Creator.
6. We may have had certain spiritual beliefs, but now we begin to have a spiritual experience.
7. The feeling that the drink problem has disappeared will often come strongly.
8. We feel we are on the Broad Highway, walking hand in hand with the Spirit of the Universe.
What great promises!!!!

Amazingly Karen it keeps getting better, keep working it!
