Heard that at an AA meeting and love it! In a way, I feel so lucky to be an alcoholic/addict because so much of the support is relative to my transition issues.

I haven't used in 5 months, and i don't consider myself lucky to be an addict.

Its my understanding that AA is about being lucky in finding the program, not in making the choices that got you there.
