Entry for September 23, 2007
Woke up today at a decent hour and got some stuff round the house done. Watched the Lions get blown out. I also read Steps 1,2 &3 in the 12&12, and "We Agnostics" again in the Big Book. I played a quick 9 holes at Canton, with my sponsor, then hit the 6pm meeting. At the meeting I got 2 of my letters of recomendation from my fellow cult members. I had already read one of the letters, via e-mail, but the other was the first time I had read it. It's still hard to read good things about me. It kinda makes my stomach churn. But it's a good problem to have. At the meeting we talked about the 12th Step, and Sponsorship. It's funny, I don't really think about Chairing the Tuesday Night Meeting as 12th Step work, nor the IHA Meeting on Monday, but they are. A fellow memeber told me how one of my phone calls durring the last weak really helped out another one of our members. It's good to get possitive feedback on one of my effeorts, but that's not why I did it, but it hammers home a point: IT HELPS TO CALL PEOPLE; and also, just as important I think IT HELPS TO BE CALLED. Maybe the next time I feel like shit, I won't shut off my phone, or at least answer it if I receive a call from someone in the program when I am feeling like shit. Maybe.
