Write Your Sobriety Date in Pencil
Changing her sobriety date after a relapse, a woman discovers genuine humility
What a week this has been! What a month! It struck me while changing my date in my Big Book and my Twelve and Twelve this morning. I had written my last sobriety date, December 3, 2008, in pen in the front of my Big Book. It hurt to ink over it and write above it May 18, 2014. When I flipped back to my Twelve and Twelve, I noticed I had written my date in pencil there. Erasing the old and penciling in the new was much less traumatic to my ego.
