Made a list of all persons we had harmed and became willing to make amends to them all. Made direct amends to such people whenever possible, except when to do so would injure them or others. Continued to take personal inventory and, when we were wrong, promptly admitted it. Sought, through prayer and meditation, to improve our conscious contact with God, as we understood God , praying only for knowledge of God's will for us and for the power to carry that out. Having had a spiritual awakening as the result of these steps, we tried to carry this message to others, and to practice these principles in all our affairs.
All journeys begin with the first step.
It is with a compassionate understanding of your suffering that we urge you to begin a recovery process. Through the reliance on our spiritual program, and using a God, as you understand God, you too can begin to change, starting from this moment on.
