The 12th tradition is the same in all the recovery programs. It states "12. Anonymity is the spiritual foundation of all our traditions, ever reminding us to place principles before personalities." - AA world services 

the long form goes like this. 

12. And finally, we of Alcoholics Anonymous believe that the principle of anonymity has an immense spiritual significance. It reminds us that we are to place principles before personalities; that we are actually to practice a genuine humility. This to the end that our great blessings may never spoil us; that we shall forever live in thankful contemplation of Him who presides over us all.

hope you enjoy it, and get something valuable to take on your journey with you.

This is an episode about how we handle facing hardship in recovery. I apologize in advance some of the audio became slightly distorted. There was enough material that I felt had value and was worth being heard so I dropped the episode, I hope that audio quality is at least good enough for some to here the message. 

"and acceptance was the answer" A conversation about the value of letting things be what they are. Ultimately any conscious change first begins with the realization that everything is as it should be right now.
