AA Thought for the Day January 17, 2009 Powerless I did not know that it is physically impossible for me to drink moderately. I did not know that my body's drinking machinery had worn out, and that the parts could not be replaced. I did not know that just one drink made it impossible to control my behavior and conduct and my future drinking. I did not know, in short, that I was powerless over alcohol. My family and friends sensed or knew these things about me long before I did. Experience, Strength and Hope, Page 153. Thought to Ponder....
