AA Thought for the Day

June 29, 2002

Responsibility

A complete change takes place in our approach to life.
Where we used to run from responsibility,
we find ourselves accepting it with gratitude
that we can successfully shoulder it.
Instead of wanting to escape some perplexing problem,
we experience a thrill of challenge
in the opportunity it affords
for another application of AA techniques,
and we find ourselves tackling it with surprising vigor.

Thought to Ponder....

It's not how much we do,
but what we do that gets results.
