Today's Reading - Voices of Recovery
"Just as a sponsor is not responsible for the sponsoree's disease, neither are we responsible for her or his recovery." A Guide for Sponsors, p. 12
As I grow in the program of Overeaters Anpnymous, I need to recall how it was in the early days of abstinence. The pink cloud effect made me believe that everyone could do just as I was doing.
After having several sponsorees drop out of OA, and others who found recovery in different ways, I came to the awareness that I was not "in charge."
Each person has his own path. I need to follow what is best for me and let go of other people's programs.
