Honesty, Openmindedness and
Willingness: "Most emphatically we wish
to say that any alcoholic capable of honestly facing his problems in the light
of our experience can recover, provided he does not close his mind to all
spiritual concepts. He can only be defeated by an attitude of intolerance or
belligerent denial.
We find that no one need
have difficulty with the spirituality of the program. Willingness, honesty and
open mindedness are the essentials of recovery. But these are
indispensable." -
AA Big Book, from Spiritual Experience
The
images and institutions such as the triumvirate, symbol of the triangle, and
the three legged stool are all proof of the fact that three items, bundled
together can wield enormous powers that have far greater strength and stability
than each item taken on its own. In
recovery or simply during difficult times in our lives, it is imperative that
we remember a wholistic approach to our well-being. We can no easier tell the truth all day and
expect miracles, as we can say how willing we are to change, and in the absence
of action, expect life to be different. As
the Big Book states, it is imperative that we remember the necessity of all
three items. We hope this three-sided
HOW Life Wheel will remind you of the productive role these play in your life.
