I came into 12 step program cause I weighed about 60 pounds over normal..That was dealt with..by going to meetings, then I discovered I was a drug addict...so that was dealt with by going to another 12 step..it goes on and on...We can improve our lives by living the program one day at a time, ...one minute at a time....and...

I have found, that this is not easy, but very hard to do. So, I try each day..do the best I can...one day at a time......Stuart
