Slogans and Acronyms have been used in programs for many years.  They are simple and effective tools that help us when we are in a challenging situation or ruminating on a problem.  These often quirky sayings are sometimes the quick shot in the arm we need to regain our balance and stay on track in our own recovery.  I hope that you will take the time to make a list of your top sayings and slogans...you may find yourself turning to them more often than think! 
**I also inadvertently used an alliteration instead of a acronym in my number 5 acronym spot...sorry.
