I'm looking for a new experience on this journey.
I've done a few 4th Steps over the years. Where it says in 'How It Works' .... "We stood at the turning point" ..... I've stood there a few times.
Lately I've been making the conscious effort to "take the cotton out of my ears and stick it in my mouth" and hang with the 30-40 yr oldtimers. They graciously tolerate me.
The biggest thing that the years in AA has taught me is not to wait until I'm brought to my knees. I can "tap out" and get back to basics when I feel mild discomfort rather than excruciating pain.
All the best to everyone.
