In the end,what are you really searching for?
When I first came into AA I simply wanted to be sober and have the pain stop. Since I have worked the steps my answer is different, now I am searching for peace and serenity within myself and with the world, as well as being of maximum service to my fellow man.

Quote:
is it physical,emotional or spiritual soberiety?
When I first came into AA I simply wanted physical soberiety, as I worked the steps I started to gain emotional sobriety, since I have finished working the steps I continue to seek spiritual soberiety on a daily basis.

Quote:
Is it to just be happy?
No, but the steps have led me to happiness.

Quote:
Is it to just be better connected with our fellows on this earth?
No, but the steps have let me be better connected with my fellow man.

Quote:
Is it a deeper relationship to a HP?
Today that is what, thanks to the steps, leads me be able to live life on lifes terms sober.

Quote:
Do we do it for a reason we just cannot pinpoint or figure out?
why?
I do it for life itself.
