AA Thought for the Day
(courtesy AAOnline.net)

March 26, 2009

A Thirst for AA

When he asked if I could stop drinking just for today,

I replied, "Of course, I can -- even a moron could to that,

and I can always drink tomorrow."

I'm grateful that my sponsor kept it simple for just twenty-four hours at a time.

By the time I figured out that tomorrow's drink was not going to come,

I didn't want it -- I had developed a thirst for AA.

Thought to Ponder . . .

If I don't drink today, I have the hope of a tomorrow.

AA-related 'Alconym' . . .

O D A A T = One Day At ATime.

ODAAT = One Day At A Time.  Or as one of us have as a screen name OHAAT - One Hour At A Time.

(at least that's what I think it means smile.gif

Yes, that's what it means! I have to break my day down often. It was either that or "OFMAAT" "One five minutes at a time".
