If you want to quit drinking, you are going to have to quit drinking.

The secret to the AA program is the first three words on page 112 of the Big Book.

Before I came into AA, I was dead, but I did not know enough to lay down.

The good news is you get your emotions back; the bad news is you get your emotions back.

My head is like a bad neighborhood and I shouldn't go in there alone.

I'm not going to give anybody free rent in my head.

Uncover...Discover...Discard.

The power behind me is greater than the problem in front of me.

Having a resentment is like drinking poison and expecting someone else to die.

Expectations are resentments waiting to happen.

If you keep doing what you're doing - you'll keep getting what you're getting.

Turn up a stereo to full volume then unplug it. In 2, 5,10 or 20 years later - if you plug it in again, the stereo will come on full volume. That's what alcoholism is like.

We come to the program thinking we are at the end of the line, whereas we are just at the start of a journey.

When I turned myself over to God, I took my life out of the hands of an idiot.

Where God guides, God provides.

Worry is just negative goal-setting.

Stinking thinking leads to drinking.

Carry the message, not the mess.

Isolation is the Darkroom where I develop all my Negativity!

The first step adds years to my life, the rest add life to my years.

I am the black sheep of the family. I came to Alcoholics Anonymous and found the rest of the herd.

It works if you work it, so work it cause you're worth it.

Just remember to B-R-E-A-T-H-E... Breathe in God, breathe out self.

H-A-L-T DON'T BE TOO: HUNGRY - ANGRY - LONELY - TIRED

"BUT FOR THE GRACE OF GOD"

"God is the only constant." --Ruth Casey

"No one can make you feel inferior without your permission." --Eleanor Roosevelt

"Cease to inquire what the future has in store, and take as a gift whatever the day brings forth." --Horace

"Today, I will have some fun with life, with recovery, with people, and with my day." --The Language Of Letting Go

"It pleases God that those rowing the boat are being of service ——— even to those rocking the boat."

"God, give me the courage to follow my heart. Teach me how to experience more joy in my life." --Melody Beattie

The solution is simple. The solution is spiritual.

A B C = Acceptance, Belief Change
