AA Thought for the Day

April 8, 2003

New Hope

Bill then related how he had lain awake nearly all night.
Down in the pit of his depression,
new hope had somehow been born.
The thought flashed through his mind,
"If they can do it, I can do it!"
Over and over he said this to himself.
Finally, out of his hope, there burst conviction.
Now he was sure. Then came a great joy.
At length peace stole over him and he slept.

Thought to Ponder....

Hope sees the invisible, feels the intangible, and achieves the impossible.
