From Selfishness to Selflessness

Turmoil

When on the roller coaster of emotional turmoil,I remember that growth is often painful. My evolution in the AA program has taught me that I must experience the inner change, however painful, that guides me from selfishness to selflessness.

If I am to have serenity, I must STEP my way past emotional turmoil and its subsequent hangover, and be grateful for continuing spiritual progress.

Thought to Ponder . . .

Serenity isn't freedom from the storm; it is peace within the storm.
