We shall do our utmost to achieve that ideal. Most of us sense that real tolerance of other people's shortcomings and viewpoints and a respect for their opinions are attitudes which make us more useful to others. Our very lives, as ex-problem drinkers, depend upon our constant thought of others and how we may help meet their needs.\r\nHow is it important to the group?\r\nthe group needs it to grow and be there for the newcomer \r\nHow is tolerance a spiritual principle?\r\nPage 83:    open \r\nTheir defects may be glaring, but the chances are that our own actions are partly responsible.

We have listed the people we have hurt by our conduct, and are willing to straighten out the past if we can. In this book you read…\r\nHow has your tolerance grown?\r\nPage 125:    open \r\n  We do talk about each other a great deal, but we almost invariably temper such talk by a spirit of love and tolerance. Another principle we observe carefully is that we do not relate intimate experiences of another person unless we are sure he would approve. We find it better, when possible, to stick to our own stories. \r\nWhat has been the benefits?\r\nWhen does tolerance become a bad thing?\r\nHow does tolerance differ from codependence?","author_name":"Recovered Podcast","author_url":"http:\/\/recoveredcast.com","html":"
