Millions who are not alcoholics are living today
in illusory worlds, nurturing the basic anxieties
and insecurities of human existence
rather than face themselves with courage and humility.
To these people, AA can offer as a cure no magic potion,
no chemical formula, no powerful drug.
But it can demonstrate to them how to use the tools
of humility, honesty, devotion, and love,
which indeed are the heart
of the Twelve Steps of our recovery.
May the road always lead where you need to be.
G I F T S = Getting It From The Steps.
