Spiritual Progress
Many of us exclaimed, "What a order!  I can't go through with it."  Do not be discouraged.
No one among us has been able to maintain anything like perfect adherence to these principles.  We are not saints.
The point is, that we are willing to grow along spiritual lines.
The principles we have set down are guides to progress.  We claim spiritual progress rather than spiritual perfection.
- Alcoholics Anonymous, p. 60

Thought to Ponder . . .
Growing old is inevitable, growing up is optional, growing spiritually is up to me.

AA-related 'Alconym' . . .
A A = Achieve Anything.

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,
