Many of us have found that we possess a level of discontent that may or may not have an external cause. Could be conditioning. Could just be. And many of us label it "spiritual" rather than merely "psychological."

I had a dilemma located under my skin. I found the solution to that dilemma in the 12 steps of Alcoholics Anonymous.
