As addicts, sometimes we have to learn the hard way. As we grow Spiritually we find that we can learn from our own humiliations.

We can also learn from the experience of others. We see members struggle; we see some pull through, and some return to active addiction. If they're fortunate to make it back, they tell us about those experiences.

They learned through their experience and so did we. We don't have to go back out there to learn.

It isn't worth it; Recovery is much better. We learn to Share our experience with others. We Share our experience for identification purposes.

We also Share our experience so that some won't have to go through with what we went through to learn from it. We learn by Choice; we learned through Wisdom this time; we didn't have to experience it. When we work the Program, we find that we still experience consequences of our actions. We also find that when we practice the Principles of the Program and are Guided by God's Will, we will get the Power necessary to go through whatever we need to learn this lesson. Today we don't necessarily have to choose pain as a motivator.

Wisdom sometimes comes from experience, but experience usually comes from lack of Wisdom.

In This Moment: We will seek Change when we see the Light and not wait to feel the heat.
