10th Step

by Anonymous

I know today what is important in my recovery. At the end of the day, I write a 10th Step on a sheet of paper. It is a way to look inside, to uncover the truth., to discover new ways of living and discard the old.

I could go on in my sobriety not doing this important step. What I have  found when I do that– nothing. There have been times when I looked at others as the cause of my discontent. Peace comes from within.  When I am faced with a resentment, I know how to process it, look at my part and make any amends if I reacted to the situation badly.

Being able to transform calamity into serenity, the 10th Step helps me grow spiritually. When I am spiritually fit I can do all kinds of things an addict isn’t “supposed” to do. I am writing this today because I finally understand the concept and I apply the 10th Step to my life.

Anyone interested in improving the quality of their sobriety—do a 10th Step followed by prayer and meditation. It works, it really does.
