Mail Call for A.A.s at Home and Abroad

WHAT is the most important Step, the beginner often asks. In my opinion, they are all important because they all interlock with the other. To me the 12 Steps are like a cartwheel. The hub is represented by the 1st Step, the spokes are Steps Two through Step Eleven and the rim of the wheel is represented by the 12th Step. Now you wouldn't have much of a wheel if some of the spokes were missing, would you?
