STAGES OF RECOVERY
Stage 1. I walk down the street. There is a deep hold in the sidewalk. I fall in. I am lost. I am helpless. I t isn't my fault. It takes forever to find a way out.
STAGE 2. I walk down the same street. There is a deep hole in the sidewalk I pretedn I don't see it. I fall in again. I can't believe I am in this same place. BUt it isn't my fault. It still takes a long time to get out.
Stage 3. I walk down the same street. There is a deep hole in the sidewalk. I see it is there. I fall in...it's a habit...but, my eyes are open. I know where I am. It is my fault.
I get out immediately.
Stage 4. I walk down the same street. There is a deep hole in the sidewalk. I walk around it.
Stage 5. I walk down a different street.

Takes a lot of courage to fight the good fight .... "MOST HUMBLING MOMENT: When I came to believe that I was just a human trying to have a spiritual experience". In our attempts to walk the strait path mystical things can and do happen. I stumbled many times along the way. Then one day and ever since there has been Good Orderly Direction
