One of the Facts
We know that little good can come to any alcoholic who joins A.A. unless
he has first accepted his devastating weakness and all its consequences.
Until he so humbles himself, his sobriety—if any—will be precarious.
Of real happiness he will find none at all. Proved beyond doubt by an
immense experience, this is one of the facts of A.A. life.
