Giving It To God

[MajestyJo]

A woman asked me in early recovery how I could be so happy and content. I lived in a bachelor apartment and was on Welfare waiting for my disability to go through. The Social Worker who got me into treatment helped me put the paper work through. She wanted to go after my doctor's license for being my supplier for years but I wouldn't allow her to do it because he was also my aunt's doctor. She thought he was next to God but she saw the light the next year and changed doctors.

This same woman had her own job, worked for the government, and was complaining about her job, and was afraid of losing her home. She had about 10 years in the program. As my sponsor said, "You can go to a meeting and learn two things. How to work your program and how not to work your program.
