How to Recognize Those Precious Moments of Clarity We May Often Miss – Step 8

THE GROWTH THAT PAIN MAY BRING –

“Accepting the harm
we caused, being truly
sorry, and becoming will-
ing to go to any lengths to
change is a painful process.
But we need not fear our grow-
ing pains, for our acknow-
ledgment of these truths
helps us continue our
spiritual awakening.”
(It Works, How and
Why, p. 58)

CHERISHING THE LESSONS WE LEARN –

“Since defective
relations with other hu-
man beings have nearly al-
ways been the immediate
cause of our woes … no field
of investigation could yield
more satisfying and val-
uable rewards than
this one.” (12 &
12, p. 80)

“Success is meaning-
less if you can’t sleep at
night because of harsh things
said, petty secrets sharpened
against hard and stony regret,
just waiting to be plunged in-
to the soft underbelly of a
‘friendship.’ “

– Margaret Cho (1968 – ) Korean-American actor/comedian
