“We asked God to mold our ideals and help us to live up to them. … Whatever our ideal turns out to be, we must be willing to grow toward it. We must be willing to make amends where we have done harm, provided that we do not bring about still more harm in so doing. In other words, we treat sex as we would any other problem.” (Page 69, Big Book)
Bad news for problems. ‘Houston, we have a solution.’
Here’s the solution in a nutshell:
- Recognise God is the source of everything
- Recognise God is outside time
- Recognise God has already solved the problem
- Ask what, if any, small part is mine to play today
- Play it
- Forget about it
- Return to the topic only if necessary / at the next formal meditation
