The first meeting of Stockbroker Bill Wilson and Dr
Bob Smith in Akron, Ohio gave little indication at
the time of what was to come. Bill was five months
sober and verging on relapse while Bob was still
drinking (he stopped altogether a few weeks later).
But their discovery that talking together could help
them become and stay sober was a turning point in
their lives. The real breakthrough however was in
demonstrating that alcoholism needed no longer to
be a solitary nightmare; soon millions of people
were reaching out to each other. The power of
connection is the power to recover \u2013 Higher Power.
Am I grateful to the founders of AA for
demonstrating the power of recovery through
connection?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n
Perhaps at first, we are sorry that we can no longer
drink or use, but soon we become glad. We just need
to make sure that cravings are managed, because
addiction will always try to return. How much more
difficult it would be, to struggle alone. We are
fortunate to have the means to overcome our illness.
Today I give thanks to the founders of AA and every
fellowship member, who ensure that I am not alone.<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
