Our Gang

When I came to Alcoholics Anonymous, I was overwhelmed with feelings of inadequacy and with a fear of letting anyone get too close. My self-esteem was below my knees while my pride and ego had inflated my head to the size of a blimp. I was sitting at a meeting and I knew I was in trouble. The speaker was saying AA is not an "I" program, it is a "we" program, and to get sober and stay sober you had better get close and stay close to the winners. As the years passed, I learned what he meant.
