ESSAY April 2025 - Beyond the Pendulum Swing - Colm S., Rhode Island, USA
from ESSAY Magazine (An International Journal of Sexaholics Anonymous) · host Essay Magazine
Higher Power’s guidance in both struggle and service. Step into Action (p. 67) tells us that “There are many good ways to do a Fourth Step inventory.” It recommends listing and describing our resentments, fears, and the selfish nature of our sexual behavior, but it also mentions identifying our positive attributes and recognizing what “God would have us be.” This can also be found in our personal history of other, more positive, behaviors—especially in actions that stand in direct contrast to our defects, like opposite ends of a pendulum’s swing.
