*~*~*~*~*^ Big Book Quote ^*~*~*~*~*


"The tremendous fact for every one of us is that we have discovered
a common solution. We have a way out on which we can absolutely agree,
and upon which we can join in brotherly and harmonious action. This
is the great news this book carries to those who suffer from
alcoholism."

~Alcoholics Anonymous, 1st. Edition, There Is A Solution, pg. 17

A.A. at one time adopted a logo. A triangle within a circle. The circle represented the entire fellowship of A.A. The foundation of the triangle represented recovery while the other two sides represented unity and service. Recovery, unity, and service are the three legacies of A.A. Finding that protecting it's ownership of this symbol was becoming a distraction from A.A.'s primary purpose of carrying the message of recovery, A.A. decided to discontinue its use.

The common solution is recovery, unity, and service. Applying the 12 Steps and 12 Traditions to our lives allows us to live in harmony and peace. It is amazing that something so simple can change so many lives.
