Spoken Like Experts at AA

This came from my friend Eddie at my AA homegroup meeting this week: "The goal isn't to get sober, it's to have a life that doesn't make you need a drink."

And Renee, at another AA meeting: "The first drink is the problem. If I lay down on train tracks, it's the engine that gets me, not the caboose."

And in conclusion, this wisdom comes from Joe: "Page 164 of the Big Book says, 'Our book is meant to be suggestive only.' That's like me suggesting you pull the ripcord on your parachute after you jumped out of the plane."
