AA Thought for the Day

June 29, 2004

Drastic Proposals

Simple, but not easy; a price had to be paid.
It meant destruction of self-centeredness.
I must turn in all things to the Father of Light
who presides over us all.
These were revolutionary and drastic proposals,
but the moment I fully accepted them,
the effect was electric. There was a sense of victory,
followed by such a sense of peace and serenity
as I had never known.
There was utter confidence. I felt lifted up,
as though the great and clean wind of a mountain top
blew through and through.
