For me I'm fine up until the opening readings get closer to the introduction.Then the butterflies get to flying something fierce.
good for you!
you'll get some spiritual cleansing out of it...
I try to spend5 minutes on my drunklog (everyone's been there / done that) and 10 minutes on recovery (what everyone is there to hear)..
Just a suggestion.."This here's a REQUEST!"

this time i prepared a few notes for myself and wore a watch. in the past, i try to do what you just said, but always end up running out of time and going from drunk stories to "then i got arrested, sent to rehab, and sobered up. thanks!"and like that... he's gone.0 -

I would say 95% of the speakers at the podium get too caught up in their drunk log..
(yes, I'm taking inventory)..
The recovery story and the "gifts" you have been given from your recovery is where the magic is...
and don't get caught up in all the "you gotta learn the Steps/ Read Big Book!" talk..
you have to learn to crawl before you can walk..
Go to as many meetings as you can (mix them up) and get a 24 hour book.. read three paragraphs a day..
I started out with the 24 hour book (you can buy any of these at Borders or Barnes and Noble) because my attention span is so short...
also, with the 12 step meetings, you can start on any step the group is reviewing.. just jump in...
(in my humble opinion)
You never finish the steps in 12 step recovery.. you keep doing them over and over...
Wish someone told me that when I first came into the program... I thought I had to get a cetrificate of achievment for each one.. (!)"This here's a REQUEST!"

came to a realization at my home group tonight.One topic was willingness to make amends.I realized during the meeting that whatever my personal feelings are toward a given individual , they are still deserving of my attempt at an amends.Big one for me.Just wanted to share that._____________________________________SIGNATURE________________________________________________

I'd like to recommend the book:
The Four Agreements by Don Miguel Ruiz
It may change your life!A child's rhyme stuck in my head...
It said "Life is nothing but a dream."
I've spent so many years in question
To find I'd known this all along.0 -
My mom just up and left to North Carolina last year without any notice and I listened to Rearviewmirror for a week straight.0
