i try to live my life today in a way that, wherever i go and whoever i meet, whether in person or through other means, i show up as an asset rather than a burden. early in my recovery, my sponsor told me to bring somethin to every encounter: a willingness to be present, useful, grounded. i watched him live that principle long before i understood it. he embodied the Spiritual Awareness that comes from conformin to my HPs will, shapin my conduct, and he became for me the quiet proof of “attraction, not promotion”; he mentored me into the concept that i had to rely upon the principle of attraction rather than of promotion. today, i understand that people dont listen to what i claim nearly as much as they observe how i move; how i respond to discomfort, how i speak, how i serve. my actions reveal the inner landscape recovery has carved out in me. if my behavior invites someone to wonder what changed me, then my life is doin the work my words never could. 1 day @ a time...
