4.
... squarely met,
troubles well accepted or solved ...
12&12 p.124,
Step Twelve
Service,
gladly rendered,
obligations
squarely met,
troubles well
accepted or
solved with
God's
help, the
knowledge that at
home or in the
world outside we are
partners in
a
common effort, the
well-
understood fact
that in
God's
sight all
human beings are
important, the
proof that
love freely given surely brings a
full return, the
certainty that we are no
longer isolated and alone
in
self-
constructed prisons, the
surety that we
need no
longer be
square pegs in
round holes but can
fit and
belong in
God's
scheme of things -- these
are the
permanent and
legitimate satisfactions of
right
living for which no
amount
of
pomp and
circumstance, no
heap of
material possessions, could
possibly be
substitutes.

... squarely upon
it.

Our
lives, the
lives of all
to
come,
depend squarely upon it.
