RECONSTRUCTION Yes, there is a long period of reconstruction ahead. . . . ALCOHOLICS ANONYMOUS, p. 83 The reconstruction of my life is the prime goal in my recovery as I avoid taking that first drink, one day at a time. The task is most successfully accomplished by working the Steps of our Fellowship. The spiritual life is not a theory; it works, but I have to live it. Step Two started me on my journey to develop a spiritual life; Step Nine allows me to move into the final phase of the initial Steps which taught me how to live a spiritual life. Without the guidance and strength of a Higher Power, it would be impossible to proceed through the various stages of reconstruction. I realize that God works for me and through me. Proof comes to me when I realize that God did for me what I could not do for myself, by removing that gnawing compulsion to drink. I must continue daily to seek God's guidance. He grants me a daily reprieve and will provide the power I need for reconstruction. From the book Daily Reflections. Copyright © 1990 by Alcoholics Anonymous World Services, Inc.

FINDING "A REASON TO BELIEVE" The willingness to grow is the essence of all spiritual development. AS BILL SEES IT, p. 171 A line from a song goes, ". . . and I look to find a reason to believe . . ." It reminds me that at one time I was not able to find a reason to believe that my life was all right. Even though my life had been saved by my coming to A.A., three months later I went out and drank again. Someone told me: "You don't have to believe. Aren't you willing to believe that there is a reason for your life, even though you may not know yourself what that reason is, or that you may not sometimes know the right way to behave?" When I saw how willing I was to believe there was a reason for my life, then I could start to work on the Steps. Now when I begin with, "I am willing. . . ," I am using the key that leads to action, honesty, and an openness to a Higher Power moving through my life. From the book Daily Reflections.

Haven't been active the last couple days because I'm diving deep into figuring out the best way to craft this thing. So, PLEASE, just hang on a little bit longer. I'm brand new at this and I want this community to be to be real. Not some fake thing that tries to shove a bunch of crap down your throat. Just like when I first started my journey in recovery I had to do it one day at a time, one step at a time, And I had to put in the work. It came slowly at first. But eventually, I got it. God willing.
