Share this with me:

"The Twelve Traditions point straight at many of our individual defects.
By implication they ask each of us to lay aside pride and resentments.

They ask for personal as well as group sacrifice.

They ask us never to use the AA name in any quest for personal power or distinction or money.

The Traditions guarantee the equality of all members and the independence of all groups.

They show how we may best relate ourselves to each other and to the world outside."
