They Stopped In Time:
Among today's incoming AA members, many have never reached the advanced stages of alcoholism, though given time all might have.
Most of these fortunate ones have had little or no acquaintance with delirium, with hospitals, asylums, and jails. Some were drinking heavily, and there had been occasional episodes. But with many, drinking had been little more than a sometimes uncontrollable nuance. Seldom had any of these lost either health, business, family, or friends.
Why do men and women like these join AA? They sum it up something like this: "We didn't wait to hit bottom because, thank God, we could see the bottom. Actually, the bottom came up and hit us. That sold us on Alcoholics Anonymous.

In Krs-ones First Instrument: Gospel of Hip-hop
Gods work is Gods will. Here we observe that spiritual strength is found in one's mastery of one's will. It is the will that resists temptation. It is the will that seeks GOD.
- This just happened to me when I heard a bonethugs n harmony song. "If refer really makes you happy then blaze it." and suddenly I had a craving for pot. But I willed it and asked a spiritual chat room for help and it helped.
The only time I can stop worrying about having to take my pills is when I am lowered into the ground in a casket.
