Our Literature tells us that what we knew about living, before we got to Narcotics Anonymous nearly killed us. Our addiction forced us into surviving instead of Living. Denial had us trapped in these endless loops that only led to destruction and self-destruction.

The Solution was right in front of our eyes, but our disease caused us to miss it. In the Gray Book, p. 80 lines 8-9 says, "We often miss what we are looking for because it isn't hidden. " For many of us, Recovery was beyond our reach. In Narcotics Anonymous with the Help of our Higher Power, our Sponsor, and others, we will find what we were always missing, "ourselves. " We have to be willing to try something different; something that has worked for many years and countless others.

The First Step tells us that Admitting our powerlessness and unmanageability that addiction has over our Lives, opens the door to Recovery. Our Admittance has to be followed by Action to be effective. We confirm our Surrender by following the suggestions and the Spiritual Principles of Narcotics Anonymous. We Admit that our way did not work.

We get Honest with our using by doing it the N.A. Way.

The suggestions we are given are free. The only suggestions we pay for are the ones we don't take.

Our minds are opened as we witness and experience the many Miracles in Narcotics Anonymous.

In This Moment: The door of Recovery will open, if I'm Willing to knock, new ideas and Solutions will answer.
