Music Music Music Music Music You You You When the student is ready the teacher appears say the Zen Buddhist or as an al-anon speaker put it We each get here right on time to me This is an important reason to have a public relations policy based on attraction rather than promotion as the 11th tradition Suggests my own arrival in al-anon was right on schedule.
I first heard about the program when I was a teenager I attended my first meeting 20 years later I don't regret that lapse of time because I don't think I would have been ready to come to al-anon any sooner I spent those 20 years resenting any implication from well-meaning family members that I have been affected by alcoholism Only after many years of living with the effects of the disease did I really become ready to get help No amount of nagging would have hurried me along any faster Today's reminder there is no magic wand that can make others ready for al-anon and it's presumptuous to assume that I have a better idea of their true path than they do Let me help those who want help when my life improves as a result of working the program myself I do more to carry the message than I ever could by forcing it on others Let me not dilute the effectiveness of the help I can give by letting it take the form of giving advice I know I will never have enough insight into another's life to tell that person what is best to do Thank you for watching!
