These are some of my favourite likes on recovery from the Big Book.
We claim spiritual progress rather than spiritual perfection. The point is our willingness to grow along spiritual lines.
And the reminder as humans we are allowed to ‘fail’ struggle and make mistakes as we continue to grow, expand and learn more about this human experience called life.
This allows the quality of mercy as opposed to rigid judgement and unrealistic expectations not grounded in a balanced understanding of our fellow human beings.
