Working with others

"When we start to help other alcoholics, life becomes more meaningful. Watching other people recover, watching them help others, seeing their loneliness disappear is an amazing experience. You will also feel a fellowship growing around you and discover that you have many friends. This is an experience that you must not miss."

Plain Language Big Book, p. 88

Final Thought:

"The day the alcoholic in A.A. realizes that his enemy is within, that the tigers are largely creatures of his own design and lurk in his own unconscious, that is the day when for him A.A. becomes...a flight into reality."
