The material presented
here is not Al-Anon Conference Approved Literature. It is a method
to exchange
information, ideas, feelings, problems and solutions on a personal
level.
Yagottawanna - Go to that first meeting as a step out of despair.
Yagottawanna- Go to meeting after meeting if you desire progress.
Yagottawanna- Listen when you get there.
Yagottawanna- Do what it says to do .
Yagottawanna- Work the twelve steps , not merely analyze them . The program only works if you work it. And you gottawanna do it.
Yagottawanna- Read the slogans and every piece of literature you can find.
Yagottawanna- *Think* about what you read and apply it to your life. That little slogan tells me Yagottawanna keep from nitpicking and trying to control. Look at your own character defects and correct them.
Yagottawanna- Be happy and smile through life.
Yagottawanna-Not allow others to drag your mood down .
Yagottawanna- Live life just for today or your vision will be haunted by the ghost of yesterday and the uncertainties of tomorrow. Today is only enjoyable when you can see it , but you gottawanna see it.
YAGOTTAWANNA was submitted by Bill B., Illinois in the Forum magazine. I had heard a memeber in my homegroup read this in a meeting. I got a copy of it from here and posted it here a few months back. It truly is a profound piece of writing for me.
I thank you today for the reminder as I do love reading it.
I love this where is my like button!!!?? Hugs P :)
