"When you are green, you grow. When you're ripe, you rot. Don't
ever stop learning." - Tracy B.
PROGRESS NOT PERFECTIONTo think I was going to reach perfection was foolish, but I hated
making mistakes. I never wanted to be wrong. It helped me hearing
that the only thing I need to do perfectly is not to use. My
sponsor said, "if we don't use we can learn from our mistakes". I
wanted what I wanted when I wanted it. This type of thinking is
not practical in a spiritual fellowship. I did not enjoy the
feelings of rejection or disappointment. When I was using, I was
never satisfied. I had to learn how to be a winner. My sponsor
said that doing the next right thing was important. I was given
spiritual principles to use in my daily life.
"They say nobody is perfect. Then they tell you practice makes
perfect. I wish they would make up their minds." - Sir Winston
Churchill
