Here was love, applause, war; moments sublime with intervals hilarious. I was part of life at last, and in the midst of the excitement I discovered liquor. I forgot the strong warnings and the prejudices of my people concerning rink. In time we sailed for “Over There.” I was very lonely and again turned to alcohol. Soulwork look up: sublime, hilarious. Workshop writing on questions 1 & 2 Q1. We can like it when people give us compliments and expect them to continue doing this and our expectations lead to resentment What is your experience? Q2. ‘I remember being very lonely and turned to….’ [food, college, a degree, husband, love, new house, etc…] fill in the blank Q3. What did you learn from studying the Doctor’s Opinion? Q4. Was it worth three months of your life? Do you find how we do the Big Book, time well spent? Q5. Are you flattered when someone or a group go out of their way to do something kind? [Recovery brings us to gratitude of what they are doing as opposed to expectations.] Q6a. Healthy sobriety demands we stay in reality of what others will do. b. Expectations breed resentments. Write on these. [There’s nothing wrong with feeling heroic when you do something above and beyond what is expected. But if we want to be sober we have to be on guard and live in reality or we will expect people to keep treating us this way and when they don’t, get resentful - which is number one enemy of sobriety]. Q7. How old were you when you first picked up and what were you feeling? Ends
