Well stated. It's a simple program for complicated people, and we sure can complicate the heck out of anything.
Just put a few or more drunks in the same room and watch the fun begin. :rotfxko
When alcohol or drugs are in my system I am certainly powerless. As long as they are not in my system, I've nothing to worry about. And as stated, alcohol concerns are only involved in step 1.
Beyond that it is learning we are powerless over other peoples' actions and thoughts.
But it's nice to know, I don't have to be perfect (other than step 1) at this. Heck, some of my character defects will probably die ten minutes after I do.
