AA Thought for the Day

June 2, 2015

Kindness
Now is the time, the only time there is.  And if we are not kind to ourselves right now,
we certainly cannot rightfully expect respect or consideration from others.
We have found we can enjoy, sober, every good thing we enjoyed while drinking -- and many, many more.
It takes a little practice, but the rewards more than make up for the effort.
- Living Sober, p. 42

Thought to Ponder . . .
There is only one corner of the universe I can be certain of improving, and that's my own self.

AA-related 'Alconym' . . .
A R T = Always Remain Teachable.

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,
