   No worries. You might want to keep the Speaker name , date and location of speech for historical reference.

   Yvevlin G is a High Bottom recovery. He Starting drinking at 25 and enters AA by age 33 with a job, kids and wife. He was a periodic drinker who developed a growing sensitivity to alcohol resulting in unpredictable outcomes. He struggled with identifying with low bottom stories. He describes the steps and his pursuit of the “Meat and Grist” of the program. The “early-timers” used the steps to develop his objective mind over life and to help him not only attain the first step, sobriety, but to break free from the egocentric ball he had found himself trapped in.
