Anger, Jealousy, Revenge Likely To Be Aroused [A Dozen Steps]

Translate Into:

Beginning on page 43 in AA’s 12&12;

“We have also seen men and women who go power-mad, who devote themselves to attempting to rule their fellows.”

Forward to pg. 44 - “Whenever a human being becomes a battleground for the instincts, there can be no peace.”

In response to a post where I’m disagreeing with the concept of “Meeting Makers Make It” someone takes the time, lacking any communication, to immediately make a defamatory remark about “not working the program of action” to another human being, knowing nothing at all about that person and going to length to belittle the word “recovering” which isn’t mentioned in the post at all. What does this tell me? I can’t say for certain, but the guess is that the commenter is reading the right blog.

“Every time a person imposes his instincts unreasonably upon others, unhappiness follows.”

Meetings have nothing to do with the program of Alcoholics Anonymous??? You have truly got to be kidding, or insane, still. Perhaps we should all go downtown and attempt to spew the Twelve Steps all over drunks in the alley ways. Maybe we ought to stand on barstools and preach recovery to drunks who’ve been sitting in their same stools for decades - they’re sure to listen. Where else do I get as many opportunities to practice the principles of recovery as I do in meetings?

“When an individual’s desire for prestige becomes uncontrollable, whether in the sewing circle or at the international conference table, other people suffer and often revolt. This collision of instincts can produce anything from a cold snub to a blazing revolution.”

And if you even approach the implication that somehow I am responsible for the death of anyone - you’re going to get a blazing revolution, from me.

I have the ability to place something out of context myself… here, follow this;

“We have drunk for vainglory - that we might the more enjoy foolish dreams of pomp and power. This perverse soul-sickness is not pleasant to look upon.”

I imagine if you’re recovered and I’m not a real alcoholic then I’m less than and you’re better than. A foolish dream and not pleasant to look upon!

Go write your own book.
