In all fairness to AA...I wouldn't put up with struggling each day either...Because it's not a struggle for me...Nor I doubt it is for the millions who have recovered in AA. I totally understand it is not for everyone....But I have to clarify the struggle idea....Because I enjoy my sobriety that much.
