while I understand
the 12X12 might be helpful for someone
who'd never been around spirituality
and for those who might need
some idea
how to design a spiritual
rather thana religiously defined
paradigm for experience....
it was like reading Dick and Jane for me.
Although I found the one tiny part
about the abolitionists interesting.
Don't ask what step or tradition that was in
I don't remember.
But at the time
it was something I didn't know.
