AA Thought for the Day

Traditions
The Twelve Traditions point straight at many of our individual defects.
By implication they ask each of us to lay aside pride and resentment.  They ask for personal as well as group sacrifice. . .
The Traditions guarantee the equality of all members and the independence of all groups.
They show how we may best relate ourselves to each other and to the world outside.
They indicate how we can best function in harmony as a great whole.
- Alcoholics Anonymous Comes of Age, p. 96

Thought to Ponder . . .
The Twelve Traditions tell us why it works; the Twelve Steps tell us how it works.

AA-related 'Alconym' . . .
T R U S T = Teaching Recovery Using Steps and Traditions.

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,
