The power of unity

Went to an AA meeting today. I've been going every day and its awesome. Today, an "old timer" gave me his one month badge, he's had it for seventeen and half years and he said he hoped it would bring me as much luck as it had him. I was blown away!!!

We're not a bad bunch us hey?

Hugs to all

One drunk helping another. That's the heart of it.

I'm glad AA is helping you. And that guy was most generous.

Glad you are getting something out of AA. I go for the people too. Not so much the 'spiritual' and other aspects. People are amazing when they join together to fight something evil!

You know I met some of the nicest, kindest, honest, caring, loveable, understanding people I have ever met at AA.

I think sometimes some very special moments can happen in those dusty church halls ....things you don't want to ever forget xx

I agree, this guy is as wise as wise gets. I listen to every word he says and he's right every single time. The power in the rooms is amazing.
