ananda...no eeeeeks on your truth! It is how you got and stay sober!
I had to laugh at your comment about learning from those who are not in aa and it sometimes being code for what you don't want. (not this time) I appreciate your honesty, I always wondered after being attacked by an angry aa member what they meant by "I have learned from you." LOL
To think there is one way anywhere is narrow minded, you my friend are as open minded as they come, an admiral quality!
Thanks for the thumbs up....truth be told somedays I can't figure myself out!!! LOL
Progress not perfection!
