this is an interesting sentence, and an even more interesting implication. which is: you could work harder.
which brings me to this question: why not do everything you can? why wait and see until something happens (losing these feelings, or...?) before you make sure you work even harder?
if you've got "more" to give to this sobriety-thing, give it. why hold it in reserve?
Very good point! Well, I am a firm believer in the fact that there is always room for improvement.
But, I'm not doing the whole AA thing. I'm currently reading the AA book, because I find it pretty interesting, but spirituality is just not something I can get behind. So, I'm trying to read the book with an open mind in case I get to a point where I do need to try something different and maybe find a way around all of the spirituality stuff.
