It’s a simple program for complicated people. ~  Program slogan

Am unmanageable life is not the norm…
except in the rooms of recovery.
How many “Normies” do you know
who would tell you they have no friends,
that they’ve wished they were dead
and considered instigating the journey?
How many can describe a relatively painless
and commonplace goal for their lives
but after dozens or hundreds of starts
cannot achieve the goal?
How many can argue over at least eighty
of the two-hundred one words
that make up the Steps, the exceptions being
nineteen to’s, (not counting that before sanity,
seven of’s, eight and’s,
the a’s not excluded because
there must be more than one most of the time…
and some of the  other humdrum words
can be challenged. A simple program,
complicated people,  but worth the effort…
in only to meet our equals!
