I did the cookie cutter way for a long time, a really long time, where they say: you do what I do, you'll stay sober. And, uh, you know, went to meetings Every Single Day. But the thing that doesn't change, the thing that grows and continues to grow, is that spiritual part, the spiritual, uh, you know, growth that you just have to experience to stay sober.
