AA Thought for the Day

Humility
Until now, our lives have been largely devoted to running from pain and problems.
Escape via the bottle was always the solution.  Then, in AA, we looked and listened.
Everywhere we saw failure and misery transformed by humility into priceless assets.
- As Bill Sees It, p. 156

Thought to Ponder . . .
Humility is not thinking less of myself, but thinking of my self less.

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

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,
