A Dozen Steps
|
Here are the steps we took, which are suggested as a program of recovery.

-
How To Turn A Negative Into A Positive
By following the thoughts of the Eleventh Step Prayer;
The Prayer of St. Francis
Lord, make me an instrument of your peace.
Where there is hatred . . . let me sow love
Where there is injury . . . pardon
Where there is doubt . . . faith
Where there is despair . . . hope
Where there is darkness [...]

Often A Lifesaver
There is a particular writing in our literature that is of life-saving importance to me because it reminds me that the God I understand loves me in spite of me. It’s today’s Daily Reflection;
“Occasionally…. We are seized with a rebellion so sickening that we simply won’t pray. When these things happen we should not think [...]

Buddy T?s Top 20 Drinking Problem Warning Signs
Don’t take them too seriously, but here are some indications that you just might have a drinking problem… if
20. You have awakened with an overwelming feeling that you should go back and apologize… but you don’t remember where.
19. The Tipsy Taxi service has banned you from all its vehicles.
18. You refer to your favorite song [...]

Bill W. Speaks About Tradition Three
“The only requirement for A.A. membership is a desire to stop drinking.”
Doesn’t make any mention whether you are required to be a “real” or “recovered” alcoholic, now, does it? Here’s a very interesting quote from another recovery writing online: “Just because someone sits in a church basement on a Saturday night and says “I am [...]

We Who Condemn Them Are The Pharisees
What did he say? And… why?
There are those “out there” who seem to have a need to place themselves in a position of authority regarding who may or may not be a member of Alcoholics Anonymous. Thankfully Bill W. had the foresight to know such could happen. A copy of what he wrote in the [...]

?Drunks? by Jack McCarthy
A poem by Jack McC called simply “Drunks” (thanks again Alex)
We died of pneumonia in furnished rooms where they found us three days later when somebody complained about the smell.
We died against bridge abutments and nobody knew if it was suicide
and we probably didn’t know either except in the sense that it was always suicide.
We [...]

With Us It Is Just Like That
?With Us It Is Just Like That?
From pages 14-15;
?Faith without works was dead, he said. And how appallingly true for the alcoholic! For if an alcoholic failed to perfect and enlarge his spiritual life through work and self-sacrifice for others, he could not survive the certain trials and low spots ahead. If he did not [...]
-
God Opened The Gates of Hell and Let Me Out
On January 6th, 1990 and He’ll do it for you too!
?How It Works? tells us;
?It is plain that a life which includes deep resentment leads only to futility and unhappiness. To the precise extent that we permit these, do we squander the hours that might have been worth while. But with the alcoholic, whose hope [...]

Tradition Eleven Checklist
As usual, always worthy of consideration, any day, any time, imho.
From Silkworth.net;
Tradition Eleven: Our public relations policy is based on attraction rather than promotion; we need always maintain personal anonymity at the level of press, radio, and films.
Do I sometimes promote AA so fanatically that I make it seem unattractive?
Am I always careful to keep [...]

They Realized They Only Knew A Little
And they put it into print, in black and white on page 164 of the Big Book Alcoholics Anonymous.
I thank God for the old-timers He brought into my life who taught me clearly and distinctly what recovery was about. Through Him they saved my life.
“God will constantly disclose more to you and to us.”
I find [...]
