AA Thought for the Day

September 23, 2003

Inventory

We pocket our pride and go to it,
illuminating every twist of character,
every dark cranny of the past.
Once we have taken this step, withholding nothing,
we are delighted.
We can look the world in the eye.
We can be alone at perfect peace and ease.
Our fears fall from us.
We begin to feel the nearness of our Creator. . .
The feeling that the drink problem has disappeared
will often come strongly.
We feel we are on the Broad Highway,
walking hand in hand with the Spirit of the Universe.

Thought to Ponder....

If I want to be free as a butterfly, I've got to get over having once been a worm.
