Concept Twelve , Question Four Discuss how Twelfth Concept applies to each of the eleven other concepts . As the power that cleaned us is different than any definition or principle I experienced that applying a principle to others could be imagined through ones nature instead of thinking how something could be applied by mind in serving process . That power is shipmating in a fellowship that is flowing in a way which our principles could define its horizons as the help of one addict to the other . I am recovering while asking for help and I am serving to let other addicts know that I need the help they are capable of giving it to me because they are my way through NA Way .
