We know that we shall always have to deal
with the fearful forces which are released
when the human ego runs amok--
the same forces that are shattering the world of our time.
Deliver us from temptation
must therefore continue to be a prime ingredient
of our every attitude, practice, and prayer.
When things go well,
we must never fall into the error
of believing that no great ill can possibly befall us.
Nor should we accuse ourselves of "negative thinking"
when we insist on facing
the destructive forces in and around us,
both realistically and effectively.
Vigilance will always be the price of survival.
- Bill W., November 1960.
An ounce of insight is more valuable
than a pound of ego.
