AA Thought for the Day

October 30, 2005

Philosophy

Harm is done by sick people, as I was sick,
and doing dreadful harm to myself and to my loved ones.
For me, AA is the synthesis
of all of the philosophy I've ever read,
all of the positive, good philosophy, all of it based on love.
I have seen that there is only one law, the law of love,
and there are only two sins;
the first is to interfere with the growth of another human being,
and the second is to interfere with one's own growth.

Forgiveness is the final form of love.
