ASL interpretation of the 12 steps of Alcoholics Anonymous.

1. We admitted we were powerless over alcohol, that our lives had become unmanageable.
2. Came to believe that a power greater than ourselves could restore us to sanity.
3. Made a decision to turn our will and our lives over to the care of God as we understood Him.
4. Made a searching and fearless moral inventory of ourselves.
5. Admitted to God, to ourselves, and to another human being the exact nature of our wrongs.
6. Were entirely ready to have God remove all these defects of character.
7. Humbly asked Him to remove our shortcomings.
8. Made a list of all persons we had harmed and became willing to make amends to them all.
9. Made direct amends wherever possible except when to do so would injure them or others.
10. Continued to take personal inventory and when we were wrong, promptly admitted it.
11. Sought through prayer and meditation to improve our conscious contact with God as we understood Him, praying only for the knowledge of his will for us and the power to carry that out.
12. Having had a spiritual awakening as a result of these steps, we tried to carry this message to other alcoholics, and to practice these principles in allour affairs.

Great video, it was cool to learn the steps, I had never heard them before! I think in this case it would be appropriate to the sign "want" instead of signing God's WILL(fs)

good job! :)

Wow. I thought I knew the basics of the 12 steps. TOTALLY WRONG! These were great. Easy to understand and clear signing. I liked your ASL interpretation of them. A few of them are tough to translate!

I like the emotion you sign with. Interesting topic too!
