I believe everything he said he did did and I believe the stuff he's talking about now that he's doing what he's doing and more importantly than all that I believe that he's getting what he's getting now as a result of the work that he's done in the past based off of his alcohol and drug addictions and I want what that guy has or that girl has because I don't want to hurt anymore and I don't want to be sick anymore and I don't want to drink alcohol and drugs take them against my will which is what I was doing and bottom line is I want to be better and I can't do it by myself so I'm going to have to do within the constructs and the confines of this 12-step program which is going to tell me that I have to have a spiritual experience and that I'm selfish and self-centered to the extreme even though I don't think think so.
