Teachable - 05-08 - Just for Today Narcotics Anonymous Daily Meditation - #jftguy5-8

Is NA for me? This is a question every potential member must answer for themselves. It may help to read some of our informational pamphlets, starting with "Am I an addict?"
https://m.na.org/?ID=ips-an-an-IP7 Addict?
and "Welcome to NA". https://www.na.org/admin/include/spaw2/uploads/pdf/litfiles/us_english/IP/EN3122.pdfA.doc
If you’re an addict, NA can help. "Narcotics Anonymous offers recovery to addicts around the world. We focus on the disease of addiction rather than any particular drug. Our message is broad enough to attract addicts from any social class or nationality. When new members come to meetings, our sole interest is in their desire for freedom from active addiction and how we can be of help." (It Works: How and Why, “Third Tradition”) If you’re planning to attend your first meeting, you may also be interested in IP #29, "An Introduction to NA meetings "https://www.na.org/admin/include/spaw2/uploads/pdf/litfiles/us_english/IP/EN3122.pdfetings."

Teachable
"We have learned that it is okay to not know all the answers, for then we are
teachable and can learn to live our new life successfully."
Basic Text, p. 93
In a way, addiction is a great teacher. And if addiction teaches us nothing else, it will
teach us humility. We hear it said that it took our very best thinking to get to NA.
Now that we're here, we're here to learn.
The NA Fellowship is a wonderful learning environment for the recovering addict. We
aren't made to feel stupid at meetings. Instead, we find others who've been exactly
where we've been and who've found a way out. All we have to do is admit that we
don't have all the answers, then listen as others share what's worked for them.
As recovering addicts and as human beings, we have much to learn. Other addictsand other humans-have much to teach us about what works and what doesn't. As
long as we remain teachable, we can take advantage of the experience of others.
Just for today: I will admit that I don't have all the answers. I will look and listen to
the experience of others for the answers I need
