"Wait right here. I will be right back!" - Mike S.
LEARNING TO TRUSTI had the ability to trust when I was using drugs. I would give a
dealer my money and trust that what was in package would get me
high. Once I stopped using, I acted like I could not trust
anyone. Actually, I was the one that couldn't be trusted. I was a
liar, cheat and a thief. It a while to sink in, that it was I,
that could not be trusted. The time I spent with my sponsor
helped me learn to trust. He openly shared the issues in his
life. He didn't seem to have any secrets. He showed trust in me.
The group extended their trust in me when I was elected
treasurer. I told them I had been a thief. They said they knew.
They trusted me. These valuable lessons allowed me to see who I
needed to trust. Trust took practice. It took taking risks. The
first person I needed to trust was me.
"Most of the important things in the world have been accomplished
by people who have kept on trying when there seemed to be no hope
at all." - Dale Carnegie
