Carlos, yes, I agree with your views on AA. I find it has definitely added an important dimension to my sobriety program. I'm learning not to let the irritating things get to me. I can't say that they slide off effortlessly but I am now able to remind myself that the good things outweigh the bad and it doesn't hurt me if someone has a different viewpoint. If anything, I think AA is causing me to be a little more tolerant :-)
