My obligation is to try to share my experience with those twelve steps with other Alcoholics and to practice the 12 disciplines in all my affairs. Most important to me is that I be cognisant that this is AA's program and AA's steps! Not mine! My program is what brought me to AA! One path of steps which provide access to power.
