AA Thought for the Day

Harm

We ask ourselves what we mean when we say
that we have "harmed" other people.
What kinds of "harm" do people do to one another, anyway?
To define the word "harm" in a practical way,
we might call it the result of instincts in collision,
which cause physical, mental, emotional,
or spiritual damage to people.

Thought to Ponder....

There is only one corner of the universe
I can be certain of improving,
and that's my own self.
