AA Thought for the Day

March 30, 2015

Perfection
There would be no music if high C were the only note, no art if spectrum red were the only color,
no joy in pleasure if pleasure were the only feeling -- and, paradoxically, there would be no perfection without imperfection.
What does this mean to me?  Well, first it means that I don't have to be perfect.
All I have to do is grow at a pace natural to me -- and that is all I have a right to expect of others.
- The Best of the Grapevine [Vol. 1], p. 61

Thought to Ponder . . .
Give me the courage to be imperfect.

AA-related 'Alconym' . . .
A A = Always Awesome.

Thanks to all of you for sharing so generously of your experience, strength and hope in carrying the AA message.
Blessings in sobriety to all,
In love and service,
