Email from Alice who attended the first two Breakthrough Experiences in 1982:

MY BREAKTHROUGH WEEKEND LAID A FOUNDATION FOR A QUALITY OF LIFE THAT I WAS NOT ABLE TO IMAGINE AT THE TIME. TODAY, I AM IN AWE - PROFOUNDLY GRATEFUL FOR THE LESSONS I LEARNED AND THE OPPORTUNITY TO PASS THOSE LESSONS ON.

MANY DETAILS HAVE BEEN FORGOTTEN, HOWEVER, THE EFFECTS MANIFEST DAILY.

LYNN OFTEN SAYS HE DOESN'T KNOW WHAT HE DOES. THOSE OF US WHO HAVE "BEEN THERE" MIGHT DISAGREE.

I INVITE E-MAIL CORRESPONDENCE (alibet38@theproud.net). I AM FEMALE, AGE 60, MARRIED, THREE CHILDREN, TWO GRANDCHILDREN, 21 YEARS OF SOBRIETY, 8 YEARS OF ABSTINENCE IN OA, AND A RICH, REWARDING LIFE.

MY PASSION IS HIKING AND VOLUNTEER WORK.

LOVINGLY,

ALICE
