AA Thought for the Day

October 6, 2003

Solitude

As the sober weeks go by,
we can enjoy and treasure the few moments of solitude
we are able to find in the rush and hurry of life today.
When we cease to fear loneliness
and begin to cherish and use our solitude to advantage,
we have come a long way.
We realize a little solitude is necessary to think
and to try to work some of the Steps.
In solitude, we take our inventories.
In solitude, we admit to ourselves
the exact nature of our wrongs.
In solitude, our spirits see that Power greater than we are;
in solitude, we seek through prayer and meditation
to be aware of God's will for us.
