We are made for living in relationships, in community. No one can live my life for me. But I can’t do it alone, either.

The Twelve Steps are a fight for life—a hard task we take on in desperation.

The need for a companion on this journey becomes especially clear at Step Four, when we look into our past and face our own shortcomings. Support of another human isn’t optional—it’s essential.
