some people are quite sick and need lots of meetings and speaking to their sponsor often.
some traded alcohol addiction and dependancy for meeting and sponsor addiction and dependancy.
but the bb tells us this:
Perhaps there is a better way - we think so. For we are now on a different basis; the basis of trusting and relying upon God. We trust infinite God rather than our finite selves. We are in the world to play the role He assigns. Just to the extent that we do as we think He would have us, and humbly rely on Him, does He enable us to match calamity with serenity.

ive been sober a wee bit. havent been to a meeting in a few months. havent spoken to my sponsor in over a month. have a very good friend i talk to regularly on the phone and two awesome friends on here.
i am still recoveredd from the hopeless state of mind and body.

because of what is said on pg 84-85.
not the amount of meetings i go to. not because i speak to my sponsor.

jeni,

thank you for the smile this morning.
