Twelfth Step Call
When he sees you know all about the drinking game, commence to
describe yourself as an alcoholic. Tell him how baffled you were, how
you finally learned that you were sick. Give him an account of the
struggles you made to stop. Show him the mental twist which leads to
the first drink of a spree. We suggest you do this as we have done it in
the chapter on alcoholism. If he is alcoholic, he will understand you at
once. He will match your mental inconsistencies with some of his own.

- Alcoholics Anonymous, (Working With Others) pp. 91 - 92

Thought to Ponder
I am responsible for the effort -- not the outcome.

AA-related 'Alconym'
P R O G R A M  =   People Relying On God Relaying A Message.

Thanks to all of you for sharing so generously of your experience, strength and hope in carrying the AA message.
Grateful to serve,
