AA Thought for the Day

January 27, 2003

Partnership

It became clear that if we ever were to feel
emotionally secure among grown-up people,
we would have to put our lives on a give-and-take basis;
we would have to develop the sense of being in partnership
or brotherhood with all those around us.
We saw that we would need to give constantly
of ourselves without demands for repayment.
When we persistently did this we gradually found
that people were attracted to us as never before.

Believe the best in yourself.
Then it is easier to believe the best in others.
