AA Thought for the Day

I came to understand the words "Keep an open heart."
Prior to this gift of insight,
I had not known that my heart was closed.
Now I knew -- because it was opened.
I could now ask and receive help,
and I hoped that some day I would have something to give.
I felt free and light and good.
I would no longer block out love if I kept my heart open.
The next evening, I went to an AA meeting with an open heart
and a desire to be sober --
life's two greatest and most valuable gifts to me.
I became a part of that miraculous stream of living
known as the Fellowship of AA.

Thought to Ponder....

I have learned how a heart full of gratitude feels.
