C is for Cherish. Cherish your family. Not everyone gets to be a part of their family's life as a result of their addiction.

Cherish yourself. Without your sobriety, you have nothing. The program gives us hope for a better tomorrow. The 12 AA Promises are what gave me hope. I brought the body and the mind followed. I was so glad when it caught up.

C is for Change. This is a program of change. We need to change old habits, patterns, and behaviors. When I asked my spiritual adviser what I needed to change, I was told 'everything.'

C is for Courage. It take courage to walk through the past. It takes courage to live in today. God brought to it, He will see us through it. I have to remember to take my God with me and not leave Him at home.

C is for Choice. I have freedom of choice. The good thing is, if I don't like my choice, I can choose again. If I go with my choice, I am responsible for the repercussions.

C is for Clarity. Each day I try to remember to ask for clarity of thought. My brain isn't always clear, so sometimes I forget. What a difference a day makes, when you turn your thoughts, actions, and speech over to your Higher Power.

C is for Care. Care for yourself. This is a mental, emotional, spiritual, and physical disease.

C is for Chip. AA gives out chips. In NA they give key tags. They are markers of clean times from 1 day, 1 month or 30 days, 60 days, 90 days, 1 year, 18 months, or 2 + years of recovery. The most important one is the desire chip. Just for today, I choose not to use. On the White Key tag for the newcomer, spells JusT foR todaY, the last letter of the words spell TRY, that is all you are asked to do, stay clean and sober just for today. Chip away at those defects of character, one day at a time.

C is for Carols. The songs we like to sing before Christmas to get us in the Christmas Spirit.

C is for Come. Keep coming so you don't have to come back. Keep coming to meetings. Keep coming to support other friends and family. Keep coming to places where you can obtain spiritual food. Remember that your disease is mental, emotional, spiritual, and physical.
