Big Book Wisdom

AROUND THE TABLES, how often are "unique" situations described by newcomers, usually seeking a one-shot solution? As often as newcomers appear, I would say. I listened to one such tale the other night, and I was reminded once more of the wisdom packed into the pages of the Big Book. There, if one will only read it, lie the answers to all the questions raised. It is in the stories of recovery that the solutions are found. Isn't that exactly what the Big Book is all about? Recovery, not drunkenness.
