Progress
Many of us exclaimed, "What an order! I can’t go through with it."
Do not be discouraged. No one among us has been able to maintain
anything like perfect adherence to these principles. We are not saints.
The point is, that we are willing to grow along spiritual lines.
The principles we have set down are guides to progress.
We claim spiritual progress rather than spiritual perfection.
- Alcoholics Anonymous, (How It Works) p. 60
Thought to Ponder . . .
Spiritual progress isn't what gets us sober, it's what keeps us sober.
