Retread in CT
 

Returning Member from DC who recently made a geographical cure to CT. Stumbled upon your community searching the interwebs for Stools and Bottles.

Welcome Marco, we don't quote Stools and Bottles, we do have a section baaed on working on Character Defects. It is about me working on what I need, but open to others sharing.

I did find a quote in one of the AA Thought for Day readings for August 26:

Prayer for the Day: God, we pray for faith and spiritual courage to face our problems. Grant us wisdom to know our weakness and strength to rebuild our lives. - From Stools & Bottles

Found this posted on another site:

The discussion of the steps bought to mind the author of "stools and bottles".....who came from my area.

He spoke at my home group many years ago.

I have often said the "old-timers" of the 60' and 70' era of AA used metaphores and analogies to explain complicated thoughts in "simple" terms!

How about this one?:

The 12 steps are like a 3 legged stool:

Steps 1, 2 and 3 are the legs of that stool.......the remaining steps go on top of the stool. If one of the 3 supporting legs (steps 1-2-3) breaks, the entire stool will collapse!

I did a search on line too and the book can be purchased.

Of course we do have the daily readings.

Welcome to the site, thank you for saying hello. I hope you will continue to come and share your journey with us.

Strange, did a search and it didn't come up. I thought it was here, but figured it was on her old site.

Thanks for bringing it to my attention.

Contrary to popular opinion I'm here to help.

Thank you. That is good. I hope you will continue to share your journey with us.

Hi Marco! :17: It is so great having you join us here. I look forward to hearing more from you. Keep coming and sharing with us. Have a great day! :)
