12&12 p.55,
Step Five
If we have
swept the
searchlight of
Step Four back and
forth over our
careers, and it has
revealed in
stark relief those
experiences
we'd rather not
remember, if we have
come to
know how
wrong thinking and
action have
hurt us and others,
then the
need to
quit living by ourselves with those
tormenting ghosts of
yesterday gets more
urgent
than ever.
