The Three A’s: Awareness, Acceptance, Action
The January 29 reflection from The Real Connection has had a profound impact on my recovery.
SA is My Family, as Most People I Loved Are Dead
As this headline suggests, I have lived through the deaths of my large childhood extended family, where I lived and thrived. Then, in midlife, my beloved husband died tragically. My circle shrank to my parents and grandmother, but in 2020, my cherished father and grandmother both died in lockdown, with all the severe trauma that involved at the time. Even my former acting-out partner will be dead by now.
Bringing Us Together
"Have you worked the Steps on this issue?" Sylvia asked me that question regularly when she was my sponsor. The question stays in my head, and it comes to the surface when my Higher Power knows I need help. Seven women received many wise suggestions from Sylvia as our sponsor or as our friend. We united in our grief to have an online memorial, a memorial on Zoom, and a memorial published in the June ESSAY magazine. Sylvia passed away in October 2024. One of the women interviewed me and Sylvia's former sponsees and friends to paint a picture of her gifts of experience, strength, and hope.

?האם זו תאווה או אהבה
תאווה תמיד הייתה חלק ממני, הרבה לפני שידעתי לקרוא לה כך. היא תבעה אותי לעצמה בחשיכה שתיהפך לסקסוהליזם שלי – כלא פרי-יצירתי, גדול כמו היקום. המחלה שלי התפתחה בשקט. חלק אולי יטענו שלא הגעתי לתחתית היות וחיי לא התהפכו לחלוטין כתוצאה מהנפילות הרבות שלי.
