We are AA!!!

Some friends of mine and I are starting a new chapter in our lives today.  Our little group we started is moving into a new home and we are going to be having three meetings a week.  We had our last meeting in our old location tonight and it was so cool.  We had a good attendance and everyone shared their experience and hope about the topic that was presented out of the Big Book.

After the meeting I got to share some experiences out of my past with a brother who is going through some of the same things.  It was a very enlightening experience for me.  Yet again, a chance to see how God can use my experience to benefit others.

I have been struck by something all day.  The real beauty of this Program is that we get to do it from now on.  We are on a spiritual journey together without end...  We are AA... We love you and you are welcome here...

We don't care if you are black, white, red, brown, purple, or green. We don't care if you are straight or gay... It doesn't matter to us if you are rich or poor.  Blessed with an intelligence beyond belief or just simple minded...  We love you...

What we do care about is this... 

When you drink can you control the amount you drink EVERY time? or...

Given sufficient cause can you stop altogether?

If the answer to EITHER one of those questions is NO... Then we have a way out on which we can absolutely agree and join in brotherly and harmonious action!!!

And here is the real kicker... We are having a blast doing it.  We are living above our present circumstances by the Grace of God... We absolutely insist on enjoying life....

Come and join us on the Broad Highway...  Our life ROCKS!!! because our GOD ROCKS!!!
