Very inspirational meeting

Tonight's AA meeting was "Birthday" night. I still consider myself a Newbie and to see the proud, joyous looks on their faces was awesome. I was very envious of their sense of accomplishment.

My favorite part is when they share how they got their sober time. It's like listening to a how-to manual. Higher power, sponsor, meetings, doing the next right thing. All things I need to hear on a regular basis.

Nice to meet you Oasis24 !

Today we had a 36th Birthday in our Home Group. In March we had a 46th.
They both said the same thing "Keep Coming Back".

All the best.
