Active addiction isolated us from the rest of the world. The longer we used, the smaller our world got. After some time, for some of us, our only contact with others was to use and find the ways and means to use more.

Our world shrank, and we weren't Sharing anything with anyone. We were cut off from this human experience of Sharing thoughts and feelings with another human being. Most of our actions were motivated by our using and no one knew how we felt or what we were going through. Coming to Narcotics Anonymous is described by some as a coming home.

We were Greeted with a hug and were told to keep coming back. We were finally rescued from that sea of isolation.

We found people who we could Identify with. We began to listen to others Share a Message of Hope and the Promise of Freedom.

We began to feel the magic of Empathy. We started Sharing both good and bad feelings. As we Shared with others, we began to feel part of.

We began to feel human again; a feeling that we long-lost by active addiction. By our Positive actions and Practicing Spiritual Principles, we began to define and shape our Recovery. With the Guidance and Help from the God of Our Own Understanding and the Fellowship of N.A. we start to Grow. We became part of a Fellowship, and our Recovery started to Flourish.

We began to Share with others from this experience. We keep this Precious Gift as a result.

In This Moment: We will become part of something Whole. We will, through Practicing a Living Program, have a Relationship with Reality. We begin to mature Spiritually.
