We have three little mottoes which are apropos. Here they are:

First Things First
Live and Let Live
Easy Does It.

Abstinence is NOT DRINKING and feeling bad about it.

Recovery is NOT DRINKING and feeling good about it.

Resentment is like taking poison and expecting the other person to die

"Compare and Despair" is my favorite slogan.

In the beginning, when I was first going to meetings, I was still in a state of denial. I listened to a lot of people's stories (when I could actually start paying attention) and said to myself "Well, maybe I don't really have a problem because I never crashed a car." I relayed those thoughts to my sponsor and she told me, "Compare and despair," which means, don't try to validate your experience by comparing your journey to other people's.

It works if you work it and it won't if you don't!

Take the cotton out of your ears and put it in your mouth.

We close in a circle because we don't do lines anymore.

slogan

A old timer is a person that can pronounce autonomous and anonymity

The only thing about doing nothing is that you never know when your done

Alcoholics/addicts have a ego as big as the world and self-esteem that wouldn't fit on a ants foot

It your wondering what your next move is ask God

Life shows up

Been here long enough to know I haven't been here long enough

Put the plug in the jug

Geographical tripping has nothing to do with Geography

Yesterday is history tomorrow is a mystery

Stick with the winners

take what you need and leave the rest
