addiction is a slow suicide attempt

[kennyjfresh1]

I cried when he died, but I smile for the way he lived...

[vanidamays]

its Tradition 11 & 12, not the steps



[jodyv]

@sirmcgowington Feb. 3, 1959 Buddy Holly-(seat was originally for Waylon Jennings)-, Ritchie Valens, and "The Big Bopper" boarded a small plane to get to the next gig that crashed shortly after take off.

Stevie boarded a helicopter originally for Eric Clapton but, Eric offerd his seat to Stevie because, Stevie wanted to go and spend a little time with his girlfiend.

This aircraft also crashed shorly after take off.

Reportedly, they all went fast without pain.

I love you Stevie... I was only 3 when you died, but your music lives on forever!!!

[hoskammer2012]

Thanx Stevie ....Rock ONNNN.....VIVA VAUGHAN!!!

[creatorsong21]

@etbradley i agree. Ive seen many taped and the speaker was aware and agreed prior. As there "are no accidents in Gods world" then even this(no matter how it has come about) is "exactly as it is supposed to be at this moment, Nothing, absolutely nothing happens in Gods world by mistake." chapter *Acceptance was the answer* or Dr, alcoholic, addict.

A - Anonymous

[etbradley]

The only real question here is whether or not he knew he was being recorded....

[TheoBurke]

@etbradley Read the 11th and 12 steps again:

" 11. Our public relations policy is based on attraction rather than promotion; we need always maintain personal anonymity at the level of press, radio, and films. 12. Anonymity is the spiritual foundation of all our traditions, ever reminding us to place principles before personalities."

Speaker tapes are common place in the AA community, yes, but the fact remains that you, as an individual, do not have the right to break SRV's anonymity.

[etbradley]

@TheoBurke recording of AA speakers is quite common and accepted. it is a great way to share the message. Even using the AA's last name is ok, after they have passed away.

[TheoBurke]

If this was recorded at an AA meeting, it is a serious breach of our 12 tradition concerning anonymity; even as a famous sober celebrity known to millions, no one has the right to publicly release the words SRV spoke at a 12 Step meeing. Anonymity is the spiritual foundation of all of AA's principles. Shame on you for ingoring that.

badass



[Iluvmycounnotmygov]

I go to AA over NA just like Stevie. Miss and love you brother! RIP

[sirmcgowington]

@Brycelayne

wrong---12steps is twelve steps and alcohol is a drug--- dummy

[broadcastmyass4u]

How did stevie pass?

[ndrthrdr1]

@wdstckdr1 Car accidents aren't mistakes? Making a typo isn't a mistake? You've never made a mistake? Mistakes happen all the time.

[1scottfrmlin]

Its a damn shame, the man got clean, got his life in order, then had to die....what a waste

[Brycelayne]

He needs to go to NA.
