Nearly all of us, when we think about it, agree
that we are a long way from being anywhere near grown-up,
from almost any point of view.
We can clearly see that our job as individuals
and as a Fellowship is to keep right on growing
by the constant use of our Twelve Steps.
Of course, we may be certain that this will be
a slow business.
But we also know we can never take
our plodding progress as the slightest alibi
for setting ourselves second-rate goals.
- Bill W., July 1960.
The willingness to grow
is the essence of all spiritual development.

I'm Mike B., an alcoholic.
Surrender is the answer and willingness is the key. Until I let go of who I am, God cannot change me into the person He wants me to be. I found out that life is so much more joyous when I know that God is God and I am just a guy who has a message to share with those who want it. I am so grateful that God has granted me another day of life as a sober alcoholic.
- Mike B.
