AA Thought for the Day

September 11, 2002

Destiny

We are again citizens of the world.
It is a distraught world, very tired, very uncertain.
It has worshipped its own self-sufficiency -- and that has failed.
We AA's are a people who once did that very thing.
That philosophy failed us too.
So perhaps, here and there,
our example of recovery can help.
As individuals, we have a responsibility,
maybe a double responsibility.
It may be that we have a date with destiny.
Bill W., October 1944.

Thought to Ponder....

What if I were caring rather than judgmental?
