Choices
"Yet we finally did make choices that brought about our recovery.
We came to believe that alone we were powerless over alcohol.
This was surely a choice, and a most difficult one.
We came to believe that a Higher Power could restore us to sanity when we became willing to practice AA's Twelve Steps.
In short, we chose to 'become willing,' and no better choice did we ever make."
- As Bill Sees It, p. 4

Thought to Ponder . . .
I am worth staying sober for.

AA-related 'Alconym' . . .

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,
