When I go to meetings I like to listen
for the messages of hope that will help
me remain sober. I realize that no one
is perfect in all areas of their life and I
learned not to take anothers inventory.

I go to my meetings to get what I need
in recovery and to help me better my
recovery. Some go off the grid and begin
airing out their laundry so to speak and
to me that is a turn off.

I talked to my sponsor away from
meetings about my personal struggles
and she always pointed me to the Big
Book for answers. And that to be is
keeping with the guidelines of recovery.

I understand we all need a place or
someone we can vent to to lighten
the stress load on our shoulders like
a good friend or a spouse, even our
pets who show us unconditional love
no matter whats going on.

Anyway, im glad you are looking for
healthier boundries in recovery
and ur sponsor and if one person
is not helping you achieve what
you need, then by all means, look
for someone else to follow in their
recovery footsteps to continue on
your recovery journey.

Continue seeking positivity in recovery
that will brighten your day, give you
hope and lift you up.
