Writings of Recovery

Studying and working the 12 steps are two different things. Studying provides the awareness and points me in the direction of recovery, health, and sanity. It educates my brain and helps put my disordered thinking into alignment.

Working the 12 steps is putting what I have been studying into action. This is not a thinking program; it’s a doing program. Working the steps provides the spiritual awakening that cannot be intellectualized. I cannot explain the how.  The spiritual awakening that happens from working the steps is what provides the transformation that takes me from bondage to freedom in all aspects of my life. Where character defects transform to assets.
