The word integrity evolved from the Latin adjective integer, meaning a whole number or complete number, not a fraction.
Integrity is defined as 'an undivided or unbroken completeness', or 'a state of being complete or whole'. When used to describe a person, it refers to the concept of living by one's values and principles.
Living my life sober is living with integrity.
In the Big Book of AA, it describes this about the process of getting sober—no fractions here. No doing it partly or halfway, “Half measures availed us nothing. We stood at the turning point. We asked His protection and care with complete abandon.” page 10, Big Book of AA
Complete Abandon.
All of me.
Integrity.
Join us.
“Abandon yourself to God as you understand God. Admit your faults to Him and to your fellows. Clear away the wreckage of your past. Give freely of what you find and join us. We shall be with you in the Fellowship of the Spirit, and you will surely meet some of us as you trudge the Road of Happy Destiny. May God bless you and keep you—until then”
A Vision for You, page 164 of The Big Book of Alcoholics Anonymous
