AA Thought for the Day

Paradox
Such is the paradox of AA regeneration: strength arising out of complete defeat and weakness,
the loss of one's old life as a condition for finding a new one.
But we of AA do not have to understand this paradox, we have only to be grateful for it.
- Alcoholics Anonymous Comes of Age, p. 46

Thought to Ponder . . .
I have learned how a heart full of gratitude feels.

AA-related 'Alconym' . . .
T H I N K = Thank Heavens, I Now Know.

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,
