AA Thought for the Day

October 25, 2002

Getting Well

We suffer to get well.
There is no way to escape the terrible suffering
of remorse and regret
and shame and embarrassment
which starts us on the road to getting well from our affliction.
There is no new way to shake out a hangover.
It is painful. . .
We suffer to get well.

If God brings you to it, He will bring you through it.
