one of the most amazing meetings i can remember was one that had a very controversial topic(though i can't remember what it was)... but there were 18 people sitting around the tables and each person had an altogether different opinion... yet there was no argument... no resentment... nothing... each person had the right to share how they felt and what they thought... that was so cool... don't think i'll ever forget it... i think that is one of the most valuable tools we have in AA is the right to be wrong without anyone being able to force us to believe differently... and for me that was the beginning of a feeling of true freedom that i had never known before...
