Daily Reflections-July 2

THE HEART OF TRUE SOBRIETY
We find that no one need have difficulty with the spirituality of the program. Willingness, honesty and open-mindedness are the essentials of recovery. But these are indispensable.
- ALCOHOLICS ANONYMOUS, p. 570

Am I honest enough to accept myself as I am and let this be the "me" that I let others see? Do I
have the willingness to go to any length, to do whatever is necessary to stay sober? Do I have the
open-mindedness to hear what I have to hear, to think what I have to think, and to feel what I
have to feel?
If my answer to these questions is "Yes," I know enough about the spirituality of the program
to stay sober. As I continue to work the Twelve Steps, I move on to the heart of true sobriety:
serenity with myself, with others, and with God as I understand God.
