“To be happily sober, we must be active — and this does not necessarily mean group activity. The Loner is part of a much larger group of people in far distant places, all members of AA with the same problems, fears, and happiness to be shared … I may not be in face-to-face contact with other AA members, but my real friends in AA are too many to enumerate, and I find there aren’t enough hours in the day to do all I should.”
“Alone? Not This Loner!” Salisbury, Rhodesia, February 1970, AA Around the World
