"Acceptance"...

Sobriety is the most important thing in your life… you may believe your job or your home life comes first… but remember… if you do not get sober... and stay sober... chances are that you won’t have a job… a family… sanity… or even life itself… if you put other things first you are only hurting your chances… if you are convinced that sobriety is the most important thing in your life you have just so much more chance of getting sober and staying sober…

And acceptance is the answer to all my problems today. When I am disturbed, it is because I find some person, place, thing, or situation--- some fact of my life--- unacceptable to me, and I can find no serenity until I accept that person, place, thing, or situation as being exactly the way it is suppose to be at this moment. Nothing, absolutely nothing happens in God’s world by mistake. Until I could accept my alcoholism, I could not stay sober; unless I accept life completely on life’s terms, I cannot be happy. I need to concentrate not so much on what needs to be changed in the world as on what needs to be changed in me and in my attitudes.
