“Remember that we deal with alcohol
cunning, baffling, powerful!
Without help it is too much for us.
“I came to A.A.
in order to stop drinking;
what I received in return
was my life.”
“One Day at a Time”
“First Things First”
“The idea that somehow, someday
he will control and enjoy his drinking
is the great obsession
of every abnormal drinker.”
“I listened to their stories
and found so many areas where we overlapped
not all the deeds, but the feelings of remorse
and hopelessness.
I learned that alcoholism isn’t a sin, it’s a disease.”
“When I am willing,
to do the right thing
I am rewarded with an inner peace
no amount of liquor
could ever provide.”
“Keep Coming Back.”
“Life at home
was falling apart
around me.”
“Ninety days sober
cleared my thinking
enough to make me realize
I’d hit bottom. ”
“If I were to go back to drinking,
it would be just a matter of time
before one of two things happened:
I’d succeed at suicide,
or I’d start the life of the living dead.”

“We will know
a new freedom
and a new happiness.”
“When I stopped living in the problem
and began living in the answer,
the problem went away.”
“It works
it really does.”
