Spirituality has been described, by one of our Predecessors, as having the right Relationship with Reality. In active addiction, we didn't have right Relationships, never mind any with Reality. The disease of addiction is the Great isolator.

Addiction isolated us from our feelings; it isolated us from everyone and everything, every chance we got. Isolation is one of the exact nature's of the disease. Our world, which once was so full and big, became smaller and smaller because of our active addiction.

The Gray Book says that, "This loneliness will kill us inside and the drugs which always comes next, may do the job completely. " Narcotics Anonymous offers us a Fellowship with a Twelve Step and Twelve Tradition Program. Practicing a Living Program frees us from our self-made prisons. N.A. offers us a Total Spiritual Awakening filled with Unlimited Spiritual Growth.

Through Sharing our Recovery with others in Narcotics Anonymous; we are able to keep this Precious Gift. In Narcotics Anonymous, we learn to have a right Relationship with God, ourselves, others, and the world. This is our Reality; this is our Spirituality.

As we continue on this Spiritual Path, we will come in contact with addicts that are still suffering from the disease of addiction. We Carry the N.A. Message and Share our Experience, Strength and Hope, so no addict need ever die from the horrors of addiction.

This is also part of our Spirituality.
