AA Thought for the Day

April 16, 2004

Trouble

AA was born out of trouble,
one of the most serious kinds of trouble
that can befall an individual,
the dark and fatal malady of alcoholism.
Every single one of us approached AA in trouble,
in impossible trouble, in hopeless trouble.
And that is why we came.
- Bill W., Talk, 1958.
