AA Thought for the Day

July 15, 2004

Emotional Turmoil

When on the roller coaster of emotional turmoil,
I remember that growth is often painful.
My evolution in the AA program has taught me
that I must experience the inner change, however painful,
that eventually guides me from selfishness
to selflessness.
If I am to have serenity,
I must STEP my way past emotional turmoil
and its subsequent hangover,
and be grateful for continuing spiritual progress.

Thought to Ponder....

Serenity isn't freedom from the storm;
it is peace within the storm.
