The rewards of sobriety are bountiful
and as progressive as the disease they counteract.
Certainly among the rewards for me
are release from the prison of uniqueness,
and the realization that participation in the AA way of life
is a blessing and a privilege beyond estimate --
a blessing to live a life free from the pain
and degradation of drinking
and filled with the joy of useful, sober living,
and a privilege to grow one day at a time
and bring the message of hope as it was brought to me.
I am unique, just like everyone else.
