Sobriety is a precious gift that I have received from working the 12 Steps of Alcoholics Anonymous on a daily basis. My love for and my belief in these Steps have prompted me to write a workbook entitled, "The 12 Step-12 Week Plan". As a grateful recipient of all wisdom, joy and freedom that I've received from working the Steps, I've been given the opportunity to carry the message of AA to others who still suffer from this cunning, baffling and powerful disease. For the first time I feel that I have something valuable to contribute and give back to the program. The Steps are something that I will "live" for the rest of my life and are the guiding force in my life today. It took hard work to get to where I am in my sobriety, and in hindsight, I am so grateful that I kept coming back. It has taken me a long time to understand, forgive and feel good about myself again. Today, my disease no longer defines who I am. My on-going sobriety has returned me to myself, my humanity and to my God given potential. For the first time in years, I've found the desire to draw again, and I feel that there is no greater purpose in my life than for me to utilize my art as a tool to help others heal. All that I've been given in the program grows and grows the more it is shared. Recovery is not an end, but is a bright new beginning of endless possibilities!
