LESSONS FROM OUR MISTAKES -
"We grow through
pain in recovery and
often find that such a cri-
sis is a gift, an opportun-
ity to experience growth
by living clean." (The
Basic Text, p. 103)
THE GIFT OF BEING YOU -
"These legacies of suffering and of recovery are easily passed among [us], one to the other. This is our gift from God, and it is bestowed upon others like us all around the globe." (12 & 12, p. 151)
"The most pre-
cious gift we can offer
others is our presence
When mindfulness em-
braces those we love,
they will bloom
like flowers."
- Thich Nhat Hanh (1926 - ) Vietnamese Zen Buddhist monk
*HP - Higher Power - is any power greater than oneself. Like Nature, the Cosmos, or even the legal system.
