When on the roller coaster of emotional turmoil,
I remember that growth is often painful.
My evolution in the AA program has taught me
that I must experience the inner change, however painful,
that eventually guides me from selfishness to selflessness.
If I am to have serenity,
I must STEP my way past emotional turmoil and its subsequent hangover,
and be grateful for continuing spiritual progress.
Change is inevitable, growth is optional.
