AA Thought for the Day

AA Thought for the Day (courtesy AA-Alive.net) April 28, 2014 Tornado The alcoholic is like a tornado roaring his way through the lives of others. Hearts are broken. Sweet relationships are dead. Affections have been uprooted. Selfish and inconsiderate habits have kept the home in turmoil. We feel a man is unthinking when he says sobriety is enough. He is like the farmer who came up out of his cyclone cellar to find his home ruined. To his wife, he remarked, "Don't see anything the matter here, Ma. Ain't it grand the wind stopped blowin'?" - Alcoholics Anonymous, p. 82 Thought to Ponder . . . I cannot add to the peace and good will of the world if I fail to create an atmosphere of harmony and love right where I live and work. AA-related 'Alconym' . . . C H A O S = Creating Havoc Around Ourselves. Thanks to all of you for sharing so generously of your experience, strength and hope in carrying the AA message.
