“Yes, that’s me,” said the sick man, “the very image. You fellows know your stuff all right, but I don’t see what good it’ll do. You fellows are somebody. I was once, but I’m a nobody now. From what you tell me, I know more than ever I can’t stop.” At this both the visitors burst into a laugh. Said the future Fellow Anonymous: “Damn little to laugh about that I can see.” ~ A.A. World Services Inc. Alcoholics Anonymous, 4th Edition . A.A. World Services, Inc.. Kindle Edition.These three men were the first group in A.A.
Recovery people have been laughing ever since.
I've been in Recovery, in Overeaters Anonymous
a baker's dozen years, have read aloud the Traditions
who knows how many times! But today I read,
"3. The only requirement for OA membership
is a desire to stop eating completely."
Lesa thought that over and decided she could not!
We chuckled at it throughout the meeting!
"Damn little to laugh about that I can see."?
Hardly!As the Big Book proclaims,
"We’re not a glum lot… we absolutely
insist on enjoying life!”
Learn to have fun again...
Come find a home in Recovery!
