What a gift this step is. It completes the key to the circle of recovery; giving back what I have been given.

By applying the steps and principles to all aspects of my life I have found that there is no difficulty that feels insurmountable. Prior to having these spiritual tools every obstacle was seen as a potential life/sanity threatening event.

I am grateful today for the program of AA and all that it has given me.
