Walk In Dry Places
Principles are Enduring
Problem Solving
We often emphasize -Principles before personalities-- in Twelve Step
programs, sometimes without fully understanding what's involved. The real
message of this slogan is that we should treat people equality while
following certain guidelines in our own actions.
While we are influenced by strong personalities, we cannot rely on them for
complete guidance and direction. People can betray us or simply fail us
through no fault of their own. Principles, on the other hand, are enduring
and will be with us long after personal relationships wither away.
One unfailing principle for living is to live each day remembering that God
(HP) is guiding and directing all actions and outcomes. While we will be
grateful for the assistance and cooperation of others, we will not hold them
responsible for our successor failures.
I'll live today with the belief that God's(HP's) good plan is working in all
people's lives. I will not expect too much or too little of others, but
rather will deal wit them fairly and decently.
