Working the Program

Always need to remember that this is a one day at a time program. I need to practice the above daily. My dis-ease within myself doesn't go away, it is only when I apply the program, that I have daily reprieve.

The Twelve Steps and Traditions, which originated with AA, is applicable to all areas of our life.

I do have a disease, an allergy. I don't metabolize alcohol and drugs the way normal people do. I have a obsessive/compulive disorder.

All of my life, I looked out side of myself for some person, place or thing to make me feel better. I had to find that happiness and love from within myself.
