GOAL: SANITY 

". . . Step Two gently and very gradually began to infiltrate my life. I can't say upon what occasion or upon what day I 

came to believe in a Power greater than myself, but I certainly have that belief now." 

TWELVE STEPS AND TWELVE TRADITIONS, p. 27 

"Came to believe!" I gave lip service to my belief when I felt like it or when I thought it would look good. 

Me: step two came to me gradually as well. It's in the quiet moments when you surrender the idea that I can fix things by sheer force of my personality or looks or charm or intelligence. I now know I can't. Because I'm actually small. Something else can though. It's hard to surrender. But I have to back to step one. Then step two becomes a possibility. Life will work if I'm not the thing with power.
