AA Thought for the Day

October 28, 2003

Spirituality

It's patience in the face of stupidity,
It's feeling that you want to knock somebody's head off --
and walking away instead. . .
It's wanting to go home, yet being there.
It's a rocket ride that goes
far beyond the world your eye can see . . .
It's a majestic skyline or a western desert. . .
It's a young child. . .
It's the awareness that survival is a savage fight
between you and yourself. . .
It's knowing that even the bad times are good.
Don't look back -- you haven't seen anything yet.
When people look at you and wonder what's with you,
the look in your eyes will answer them . . .
If every man is to have it, then every man must earn it,
in his own way, by his own hand,
stamped by the seal of himself, in his own individual right.
