In A.A., we’re all through with lying, hangovers, remorse
and wasted money. When we were drinking, we were only
half alive. Now that we’re trying to live decent, honest,
unselfish lives, we’re really alive. Life has a new
meaning for us, so that we can really enjoy it. We feel
that we’re some use in the world. We’re on the right
side of the fence, instead of on the wrong side. We can
look the world in the face instead of hiding in alleys.
We come into A.A. to get sober and if we stay long
enough, we learn a new way of living. Am I convinced
that no matter how much fun I got out of drinking, that
life was never as good as the life I can build in A.A.?
Meditation For The Day
I want to be at one with the Divine Spirit of the
universe. I will set my deepest affections on things
spiritual, not on things material. As we think,
so we are. So I will think of and desire that which will
help, not hinder, my spiritual growth. I will try to be
at one with God. No human aspiration can reach higher
than this.
Prayer For The Day
I pray that I may think love, and love will surround me. I
pray that I may think health, and health will come to me.
