Progress, not perfection


If I ever act like I'm at the top, someone please wake me up.  I'm so psycho I must use Charlotte Kasl's 16 Steps....12 don't work for me.  I studied the paradoxes (which still drive me nuts; my sponsor said to try to hold on to the polarities), and I've accepted that there really are 13 Steps in any A group, so I need all the help I can get figuring out how to stay sane.  Anybody have a program that has more than 16 steps?

Someone in recovery said their goal was to make the uncomfortable comfortable, and the comfortable UNcomfortable....that seems to be true no matter what, for me.  My husband has busted my grandiosity so many times....I guess because I do so to him.  My sponsor said she's too healthy to let anyone "use" her, so I've been trying to meditate on that for myself....but fall short.  I'll say yes to something then get pissed off at myself for doing so later.  How I WISH I were perfect......reality is, we only get wise when we get old....then we DIE!!!!  Who says HP doesn't have a sense of humor smilesmilesmile
