When I first met Bel, she was just like I was when I was new...angry and full of self pity. She asked me to be her sponsor and I said I had a full roster at that time and directed her to another. When that connection didn't work out, she came back again, still full I told her and suggested another person.
That person didn't work out. Third time was a charm, I finally had an opening and agreed to sponsor Bel. The wonderful thing about sponsorship, is seeing the change in someone when the program starts to finally click.
Like all newcomers, (myself most definitely included!!!) Bel was defiant, obstinate and argumentative! Yet somehow still a treat to work with. lol
She has come a long way and around the 1 year mark finally spoke at our group. Not a dry eye was in the room (thankfully for us she couldn't see it! and yes she loves this type of humor, she has told us!).
Bel is an example that no matter the obstacle, you can get sober if you change your perception.
You don't need to see it, you only need to believe it.
Isn't our program just like that?
