A.A. Principles:
Step 3: Made a decision to turn our will and our lives over to the care of God as we understood Him.
Tradition 3: The only requirement for A.A. membership is a desire to stop drinking.
Words from Bill W.: “It is a spiritual axiom that every time we are disturbed, no matter what the cause, there is something wrong with us. If somebody hurts us and we are sore, we are in the wrong, too.
