I found spirituality in practicing the 12 steps, plain and simple. That has nothing to do with the God concept. It has to do with the way of living that AA provided me with. I do not resemble the man I was when I got sober.

What my spiritual awakening gave me:

I am at ease and at home wherever I am

I can deal with trouble and disturbance and real fear and real grief without losing my head and feeling overwhelmed.

I can learn when to hang tight and when to let go.

Pretty powerful stuff
