"There is a solution"


I am slowly moving to Step 2 which is: " Came to believe that a Power greater than ourselves could return us to sanity."
"What seemed at first a flimsy read has proved to be the loving and powerful hand of God." (Big Book pg 28)
However I am not quite there. There is still some Step 1 reflection.
"The fact is that most alcoholics, for reasons yet obscure, have lost the power of choice in drink. Our so-called will power becomes practically nonexistent. We are unable, at certain times, to bring into our consciousness with sufficient force the memory of the suffering and humiliation of even a week or a month ago. We are without defense against the first drink." (Big Book pg 24)
