rather than many things for which we are not called.
Our society gathers in unity around this concept.
The very life of our fellowship requires its preservation.
"Shoemaker, stick to thy last" is no dull cliche for AA.
Together we have found a substantial remedy
for a terrible malady.
Of course we might interest ourselves
in fields of education, research, neurosis, and the like.

Therefore, the strongest kind of moral
and ethical compulsion is to do this and nothing more.

Thought to Ponder....

Keep your sobriety first to make it last.
