IMO just another example of language being open to interpretation.

P.25 "There was NOTHING LEFT FOR US but to pick up the simple kit of spiritual tools laid at our Feet"

At one stage I didn't know what this meant. Then I figured it meant the phone, washing the cups etc. Then I figured it meant inventory, prayer and meditation and so on. For me the meaning continues to change as I grow in understanding and effectiveness.

When people share in a general way about the "tools" that AA has given them, it means whatever it means to them. I know what it means for me, that's what's important
