AA Thought for the Day

Problems

I remember telling a friend years ago
that I didn't have a drinking problem.
I had a stopping problem. We laughed. It was true,
but there was something else going on,
something that never occurred to me until I came to AA.
I didn't really have a stopping problem.
I had a starting problem too.
No matter how often I stopped, or for how long,
I always started drinking again.
