AA Thought for the Day

December 1, 2003

Pure Joy

Then I began to see the miracles that happen only in AA.
People who would nearly crawl in the doors,
sick and broken, and who in a few weeks of meetings and not drinking one day at a time would get their health back,
find a little job and friends who really cared,
and then discover a God in their lives.
But the most compelling part of AA,
the part that made me want to try this sober thing,
was the laughter, the pure joy of the laughter that I heard only from sober alcoholics.
