Step 12 of ACOA says that after having had a spiritual awakening as a result of
these steps, we tried to carry this message to others who still suffer, and to practice these principles in all our affairs.

I recently had the pleasure and unique learning opportunity watching a TV show about a retired “star.”  Former, singer, model, and for a short time he was in the movies.  People like this are usually considered to be “stand-offish” to common folk
like myself but this person was quite different.  He seemed to genuinely care about others.

Anyway, he was so welcoming and open, yet at the same time very private.  He would spend all day talking to you, just as friendly as can be, yet at the same time, he just want to go home, kick off his shoes and relax.
