AA Thought for the Day

May 9, 2008

Ifs

Alcoholism respects no ifs.
It does not go away, not for a week, for a day, or even for an hour,
leaving us nonalcoholic and able to drink again on some special occasion
or for some extraordinary reason -- not even if it is a once-in-a-lifetime occasion
or if a big sorrow hits us, or if it rains in Spain or the stars fall on Alabama.
Alcoholism is for us unconditional, with no dispensations available at any price.

Thought to Ponder....

Alcohol -- cunning, baffling, powerful!

THOUGHT

Even if our butt is falling off - we don't drink
