Spiritual Diversity Acceptance... Spiritual is experiencing reality now, good bad, hard easy. Diversity is being open honest and willing to live and let live. Acceptance is living in the world and knowing there are choices on our journey today as there are for everyone, sober, responsible, open to joy or sadness, it is what it is...

In Step five, expression and sharing our human condition, we understand how our lives were lost in addiction and we were capable of anything. The capacity for good or bad is in everyone. Tolerance, love, understanding, compassion and consequences, all part of acceptance today...

I am responsible when anyone anywhere offers me a job, to ask myself, what about the people, the job, the place and whether it "feels right" and is the best choice today, for that I am responsible.. Tomorrow, more wisdom, choices and always more courage to change, needs met wants forgotten...

AA Daily Reflections ~ "TRUE TOLERANCE
MAY 29, 2011
The only requirement for A.A. membership is a desire to stop drinking. TWELVE STEPS AND TWELVE TRADITIONS, p. 139

I first heard the short form of the Third Tradition in the Preamble. When I came to A.A. I could not accept myself, my alcoholism, or a Higher Power. If there had been any physical, mental, moral, or religious requirements for membership, I would be dead today. Bill W. said in his tape on the Traditions that the Third Tradition is a charter for individual freedom. The most impressive thing to me was the feeling of acceptance from members who were practicing the Third Tradition by tolerating and accepting me. I feel acceptance is love and love is God's will for us.

"The A.A. Steps & Traditions are neither rules, regulations, nor laws. Perhaps the secret of their power lies in the fact that these life-giving communications spring out of living experience and are rooted in love." 1. A.A. COMES OF AGE, P. 105." "We find it amazing that the newcomer can start the A.A. program without any specific beliefs or, for that matter, without any beliefs whatsoever. All a person needs is the open-mindedness and the willingness to believe that WE BELIEVE this program works..."
