AA Thought for the Day

Focus

"Shoemaker, stick to thy last."
Trite, yes. But very true for us of AA.
How well we need to heed the principle
that it is better to do one thing supremely well
than many things badly. . .
Recovery is a matter of life or death.
So the Society of Alcoholics Anonymous cannot,
it dare not, ever be diverted from its primary purpose.

- Bill W., April 1948.

Thought to Ponder....

Sobriety is a gift,
the price of which is eternal vigilance.
