Awesome post 3legacy. Everytime I had and have a problem with A.A., it eventually comes down to something I need to examine in myself. Even if that something is just the willingness to let other people experience their own recovery in their own way in their own time.

For sure, I have to believe that A.A. has been keeping people sober longer than I've been sober (or alive for that matter). And so far, it's been keeping me sober and happy and free. Which is why I am in recovery in the first place.

As for Sainthood? Not me man, the hours are too long. I'll just work at being the best human I can be one day at a time and continue to claim spiritual progress rather than spiritual perfection.

One Love, One Heart, Jah Bless,

Tony
