Magic

As you know, the 12-step program has been vital to my recovery and continues to be the guideline for my daily living.

I came here because I needed help, guidance and support and am grateful for all who were here before me, who welcomed me and held me up until I could walk alone. Not all were 12-steppers. But each offered me something unique and beautiful.

I stayed because I continue to grow here every day, and because I feel a need to give back what has so freely been given to me. My 12th Step suggests I carry this message and practice these principles in all my affairs. To me that doesn't just mean meetings, or official Anon sites, but it means that I live my recovery and share it with anyone who wants what I have.

You have so much to give, Magic, and you have given so freely. You have been an inspiration to my recovery and a good friend on this journey. I wish you only the best in whatever you decide is right for you, but please know that this codie will miss you terribly.

Hugs and Love
Ann
