AA Thought for the Day

December 5, 2003

Memories

My past experiences
no longer have the power they once had
to rouse bitterness, hostility, and resentment.
If those memories sometimes try to sneak back in
and lure me into a pity-party,
I have the tools to deal with them.
I ask my Higher Power to remove the negative thoughts,
and I give thanks for my sobriety, my life,
and all the good things that have come my way
since I embraced the AA program with all my heart.

Thought to Ponder....

Pain is what I walk through.
Misery is what I sit in.
