THE TRUMPETER OF OUR DESIRES -

"We want to find
exactly how, when,
and where our natural
desires have warped us.
We wish to look squarely
at the unhappiness this 
has caused others
and ourselves."
(The Big Book,
p. 86)



PREOCCUPATION WITH POWER AND CONTROL AND 'IMPROVING' THE WORLD SUCKS THE JOY OF LIFE - 

"As we drove away
the people who cared
about us, we used more
drugs, trying to cover up
our feelings." "We suffer-
ed when things didn't go our
way, but so strong was our
desire for power and con-
trol that we couldn't see
the futility of our efforts
to manage events."
(The Basic Text, 
p. 45)



"If the world
were merely seduc-
tive, that would be easy.
If it were merely challeng-
ing, that would be no prob-
lem. But I arise in the morn-
ing torn between a desire to
improve the world and a
desire to enjoy the world.
This makes it hard to
plan the day."

- E.B. White (1899 - 1985) U.S. writer



HP - Higher Power - is any power greater than oneself, like Nature, the Cosmos, or even the legal system.
