Realizing the Twelve Promises
I
attended my first CoDA meeting 30 years ago when I was 22 years old. My father,
a recovering alcoholic, heard about it and suggested I go.
Back
then, I was ungrounded and paying attention to everyone else but me,
internalizing everyone else’s moods and feelings and acting out. I did not know
how to get quiet and feel my own feelings.
Believing,
trusting in, and turning my will over to my higher power resulted in miraculous
changes in me. I learned to let go and stop controlling others, to feel and
focus on me. I learned to love myself and others in healthy ways.
The
12 Promises of CoDA have truly been realized by me. I have used my spiritual
awakenings for service and have received so much in return. I have spent many
years starting meetings and sponsoring members. It is a joy to watch other
members transform and heal and thrive. It works if you work it. So work it,
you’re worth it!
