GREAT stuff there Lost.......great stuff. ......and it's ALLLLLLWAYS a learning curve. Never gonna figure ALL of life out...so get used to it. LOL

Dont be shocked (just in case it happens to you like it did to me) if, for a while, he seems to be thinking how great you're doing and how quickly you're progressing...........but then........he starts to think you're no better than you were and nothing's "really" changed.

Other ppl's opinions of how I was doing in recovery really derailed me......more than a couple times.

Heck, even today......more than a handful of years into this deal.........the right (wrong?) words from my sponsor or from a spiritual mentor of mine can lead to my head spinning pretty darn hard for quite a while.

Wisdom to ignore it and/or let go of it comes with time and practice.....and by "practice" I mean: making a lot of mistakes and learning from them.
