Like most people new to the program
I set out to find an easier, softer way. . .
When I couldn't find an easier, softer way,
I looked for the person with the magic wand,
the one person in AA
who could make me all better, right now.
This was a frustrating task,
and I finally realized that if I wanted this life,
I was going to have to do what the others had done.
No one made me drink,
and no one was going to make me sober.
This program is for people who want it,
not people who need it.
The Program was a dazzling gem being dangled before my eyes.
