We hear a lot in meetings that a grateful alcoholic doesn't get drunk. What I have found, though, reaches far beyond feeling grateful, and that is feeling useful. I believe that when I am grateful, It is usually for what I have been given. However, when I am useful, it is for what I am able to give. If nothing else, the program of AA has offered me the ability to be useful. And for that, I am eternally grateful. AA Grapevine, February 2009, Vol. 65 No. 9, p. 53
Thought to Ponder . . .
To be sensitive is to feel the thoughts and hearts of others as only you would want yours felt.
