AA Thought for the Day

The Lesson

The most important thing I've learned is this:

When I'm feeling bad emotionally, it's usually my own fault.

In nearly every case, I had made the choices that had gotten me there.

But AA never said,

"Perhaps this isn't for you. Perhaps you should go somewhere else."

They always said, "Hang in there. It will get better."

The Steps aren't about not drinking. They are about how to live sober.

Thought to Ponder . . .

When all seems lost,

hanging on a little longer never fails to bring mysterious help.

AA-related 'Alconym' . . .

H O P E = Hang On!  Peace Exists.
