Good morning fam. Have a sweet day. โค๏ธ๐๐๐ December 18 The message of our meetings๐ฏ โThe fact that we, each and every group, focus on carrying the message provides consistency; addicts can count on us.โ Basic Text, p. 68 โโโโ=โโโโ Tales of our antics in active addiction may be funny. Stories of our old bizarre reactions to life when using may be interesting. But they tend to carry the mess more than the message. Philosophical arguments on the nature of God are fascinating. Discussions of current controversies have their placeโhowever, itโs not at an NA meeting. Those times when we grow disgusted with meetings and find ourselves complaining that โthey donโt know how to shareโ or โit was another whining sessionโ are probably an indication that we need to take a good, hard look at how we share. What we share about how we got into recovery and how we stayed here through practicing the Twelve Steps is the real message of recovery. Thatโs what we are all looking for when we go to a meeting. Our primary purpose is to carry the message to the still-suffering addict, and what we share at meetings can either contribute significantly to this effort or detract greatly. The choice, and the responsibility, is ours. โโโโ=โโโโ Just for today: I will share my recovery at an NA meeting. Copyright ยฉ 1991-2014 by Narcotics Anonymous World Services, Inc.
