As we grow spiritually,
we find that our old attitudes toward our instincts
need to undergo drastic revisions.
Our desires for emotional security and wealth,
for personal prestige and power, for romance,
and for family satisfactions --
all these have to be tempered and redirected. . .
If we place instincts first,
we have got the cart before the horse;
we shall be pulled backward into disillusionment.

Thought to Ponder....

There is no materialism in AA -- just spirituality.
