AA Thought for the Day

Deviations

Over the years, every conceivable deviation
from our Twelve Steps and Twelve Traditions
has been tried.
That was sure to be,
since we are so largely a band of ego-driven individuals.
Children of chaos,
we have defiantly played with every brand of fire,
only to emerge unharmed and, we think, wiser.
These very deviations created
a vast process of trial and error which,
under the grace of God,
has brought us to where we stand today.
