AA Thought for the Day

April 12, 2005

Partnership

It became clear that if we were to feel emotionally secure
among grown-up people,
we would have to put our lives on a give-and-take basis;
we would have to develop the sense of being in partnership
or brotherhood with all those around us.
We saw that we would need to give constantly of ourselves
without demands for repayment.
When we persistently did this we gradually found
that people were attracted to us as never before.
