Slogans As I was sitting at a meeting the other evening, a lady was speaking and she mentioned the three slogans: "Live and Let Live," " Easy Does It," and "First Things First," and that she was having trouble with "Easy Does It." As she mentioned these slogans, I looked up at the wall where they were displayed. All I could see because of a lady's head in front of me was the last word in each slogan. . . "Live. . . It. . . First." Live and Let Live -- Easy Does It -- First Things First. The thought came to me then that the secret of getting or living these three slogans is to live the Twelve Steps first.
