I've met a couple people that were actually walking the walk. I've been coming around Alcoholics Anonymous long enough at this point to see and understand that some people are different outside of the meeting than they talk inside of the meeting... But then I met my first sponsor I met Stacy, a handful of other people, my friend Brian and Carolyn. And these folks were actually doing the deal. And they had what I wanted. They were happy. They were joyous. But to me, most importantly, it was very obvious that they were free which is something that I was not.
