What have learned in the rooms of recovery do you feel you can leave behind for now and what parts of recovery do you feel are worth worth holding onto?

I’m working on an alternative approach to sponsorship called “step partnering”. Its challenging but I think more rewarding.
Allowing my HP to work in my life is something I’m hoping to improve on.

I’m not in recovery in the traditional sense, but I do think that what I have taken away from this experience, thus far, is that I am responsible for who I am, where I am, and what becomes of me. Thus, I can leave behind the negative thinking that sometimes puts me in the victim role. It’s working quite well.

Learning as I am now, I must accept responsibility for my beliefs. I must make my decision about trusting and loving those who are as human as I; will someone else define my Higher Power for me? Will someone else tell me how I must relate to my Higher Power. I listen in silence. I learn from my Higher Power who speaks to me through others, and most often through the silence – when I listen. No one, and I intend for this to mean no one, can come between me and my Higher Power – we’ve got it like that…namaste.
