Eventually I learned that it was necessary for me to "practice these principles" in all areas of my life. I was forgetting that there were a total of Twelve Steps and that the Twelfth Step also had more than one part. In the same way, I believed for a long time that, in order to be in tune with the Twelve Steps, it was enough for me "to carry this message to alcoholics." That was rushing things. and stopped drinking, it took a while before I understood why the First Step contained two parts: my powerlessness over alcohol, and my life's unmanageability. But unexpected things came out of our encounter, and my boss and I were able to agree to interact more directly and effectively in the future.įurthermore, how shall we come to terms with seeming failure or success? Can we now accept and adjust to either without despair or pride? Can we accept poverty, sickness, loneliness, and bereavement with courage and serenity? Can we steadfastly content ourselves with the humbler, yet sometimes more durable, satisfactions when the brighter, more glittering achievements are denied us? When I approached my boss and owned up to my hand in his difficulties, he was surprised. In discussing the affair, my co-worker tried to reassure me that an apology was not necessary, but I soon became convinced that I had to do something, regardless of how it might turn out. I knew that my report had created the problem, and began to feel responsible for my boss's difficulty. One day a co-worker informed me that my boss was really sore because a complaint, submitted over his head, had caused him much discomfort at the hands of his superiors. Life was exciting, and I even began to enjoy my work, becoming so bold as to issue a report on the lack of proper care for some of our clients. New friends were cropping up and some of my battered friendships had begun to be repaired. I was beginning to approach my new life of sobriety with unaccustomed enthusiasm. and when we were wrong promptly admitted it. Groups themselves ought to be fully supported by the voluntary contribution of their own members.
