AA Thought for the Day
February 25, 2009

H.A.L.T.

"Don't become too Hungry, Angry, Lonely, or Tired."
My use of "H-A-L-T" is possible only because of the awarenesses I receive
through the use of the Twelve Steps.
They remain the hub on my wheel of sobriety.
I am trying very hard to use them better and better. . .
Although my main goal is staying sober and alive today,
I do recognize that my happiness with God, myself, and life
has been the result of a consistent application of the Steps.
To them, I can never call a halt.

Thought to Ponder . . .
Life is a steady drizzle of small things -- carry an umbrella.



AA-related 'Alconym' . . .
H A L T = Hungry, Angry, Lonely, Tired.

The worst is when you have all of those symptoms at once!!!! Thats when I call a friend, go have lunch, vent my little heart out then go take a glorious nap!!!!
Thanks for your daily shares!!!

This is such a biggie for me. As soon as I started consciously recognising HALT I stopped fighting against myself a lot more!
