Thanks to AA and NA I have remained sober for eight months. I shared on my first trip into the rooms, and the days I don't feel like sharing are the days when I know I should.

Hearing the shares of others keeps me sober. I ask only one thing of myself, or maybe its my Higher Power, when I'm about to share, and that is that it may help someone else in their recovery.

I used to fret about that, but I'm pretty sure that sharing is an integral part of the AA experience.

I don't understand the concept that you shouldn't share for 90 meetings. Frankly, I think that's hogwash. Then again, I've been wrong before! I do know that in eight months -- and I go to AA everyday -- that there hasn't been a single meting where I didn't walk away with some wisdom.

And I also know that the day I don't feel like a meeting is the day I need one the most.

Congrats on five days. Awesome stuff. Please...KEEP COMING BACK.
