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


"Although financial recovery is on the way for many of us, we found
we could not place money first. For us, material well-being always
followed spiritual progress; it never preceded."


~Alcoholics Anonymous, 1st. Edition, The Family Afterward, pg. 127

This reminds me of the line in the 9th Step Promises....1st Edition
"fear of economic insecurity will leave us"
as that is what happened to me....:)

Pocket book poor has been my recovery experience
and so I became spiritually rich instead..
Once again....a bit backwards...:laughing:
