AA Thought for the Day

November 4, 2004

Purpose

This latest part of my life has had a purpose,
not in great things accomplished
but in daily living.
Courage to face each day
has replaced the fears and uncertainty of earlier years.
Acceptance of things as they are
has replaced the old impatient
champing at the bit to conquer the world.
I have stopped tilting at windmills and, instead,
have tried to accomplish the little daily tasks,
unimportant in themselves,
but tasks that are an integral part of living fully.
