I am not happy, but I am grateful.  I prefer to suffer my discontent while sober.  My devotional readings talked of the advantages of sponsorship, its ability to take the answers I am giving to others and apply them to myself.  I also read of the power of the 10th step.  Something I am still working on.  Still need to finish my amends.  I do not want to start sponsoring until I have actually finished the 12 steps, ALL 12 of them, and I have re-secured a year of sobriety.  And finally, taking what I learn, the principles of recovery, and using them in my intimate environment.  My new AA sponsor gave me another saying to record; “Religion is God on the outside trying to get in, and Spirituality is God on the inside trying to get out.  This is a spiritual program, not a religious one.”
