Glad to hear you went to a meeting.
So you got another white chip, alot of us have more than 1.
Don't beat yourself up. No one among us has been able to maintain anything like perfect adherence to these principles. WE ARE NOT SAINTS.
Well, it goes something like that.
You do have a lot to offer. Keep staying with us. I'll keep praying for us!

IT ALSO SHOWS OTHERS WHERE YOUR AT IN YOUR SOBRIETY.
IT'S A BIG DEAL AT THE END OF A MEETING WHEN PEOPLE PICK UP CHIPS.
