I believe that quality of sobriety is important for me to try to maintain in myself. But I have little ability, much less right, to judge it in others. Those who sound like they are really going well may be conning themselves, and those who seem to be falling apart may just be being honest, and I recall that one of the more cryptic sayings I have heard is, "Only the weak get well." I am surprised, and a bit disappointed , if someone I see regularly in meetings has a slip, but that is about the only measure that seems to mean much. |
