AA Thought for the Day

March 6, 2005

One Day At A Time

Each day can be like a rose unfurling
according to the plan of a Power greater than myself.
My program should be planted in the right location,
just as it will need to be groomed, nourished,
and protected from disease.
My planting will require patience,
and my realizing that some flowers
will be more perfect than others.
Each stage of the petals' unfolding
can bring wonder and delight if I do not interfere
or let my expectations override my acceptance --
and this brings serenity.
