I like the part in the book where it says we shouldn't take ourselves too seriously when it is to the detriment of the group. I was in an AA meeting about Tradition 4 when the chair was getting all persnickedy about structure and rules when we had three newbies with less than a week of sobriety in need of step one and basics and Judithhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16354890444410748967noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-359369755198487122.post-4751060174814969042009-02-03T17:20:00.000-05:002009-02-03T17:20:00.000-05:00Another great post.

I was told if I don't like the way a meeting is run, and can't find one I like that there are lots of stores that sell coffee pots. And that and the Big book and the 12 x 12 are all that's needed to start a new meeting.<BR/>By the way, You and Daave have both recommeneded Queenneenee and I have been to her post the last two days and have Zanejabbershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08951592520808646104noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-359369755198487122.post-85184315701813402482009-02-03T16:41:00.000-05:002009-02-03T16:41:00.000-05:00I'm really enjoying these reflections here stevero...I'm really enjoying these reflections here steveroni.Hopehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02045801745534184703noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-359369755198487122.post-71772326201895206502009-02-03T16:35:00.000-05:002009-02-03T16:35:00.000-05:00I really amd starting to understand that the tradi...I really amd starting to understand that the traditions of the program are just as important as the steps!Wait.

If we don't like a group, we can make our voices heard in group conscious meetings. Or we can go to another group. I've done that with one Al-Anon group.Sydhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05642843245634635843noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-359369755198487122.post-76106130464031191342009-02-03T13:18:00.000-05:002009-02-03T13:18:00.000-05:00I enjoyed reading this one a lot!

To me, many of them 'ended up' 'watered down' and lost that 'old time AA' flavor.<BR/><BR/>No problem - either find another group or start a new one. <BR/><BR/>Alcoholics Anonymous is terrific.

Why did that Tim invent the internet???<BR/>I owe a big amends to a guy who set up a new meeting and he didn't run how it should be done.
