Our Twelfth Step starts off saying "Having had a spiritual awakening", that signifies that we had a Spirit and it went to sleep. Our Spirits were smothered by drugs and the disease of addiction. The drugs polluted our bodies, minds, Spirits and it twisted our personalities on a deep level.

We became different people from what we were meant to be. We no longer walked in the Sunlight of Reality, we walked in the darkness and lived in fantasy. We lived with the horrors of addiction and it was killing us, first our Spirits, and then eventually it would kill us.

Our Gray Book states, "What we knew about living when we got here had almost killed us." We first had to Learn about Honesty and Surrendering to the Spiritual Principles of Narcotics Anonymous. Other Members told us that we needed to be Opened- minded for us to Learn a New Way To Live. We needed the Spiritual Principle of Willingness to take the action needed to secure our Recovery and Help other's Recover.

We Share with new members what worked for us, and what didn't. This is the HOW of our Program.

Narcotics Anonymous brings dead people back to Life. Living the Steps Awakens our Spirits and brings us toward this Sunlight of Reality. Narcotics Anonymous and it's members serve as a beacon to Help Guide other suffering addicts to this new Reality.

In This Moment: We will Help Guide others to the Light of Recovery, where their Spirits can Awaken, as ours did.
