AA Thought for the Day

April 5, 2006

Setbacks

Some of us go back to drinking a time or so
before we get a real foothold on sobriety.
If that happens to you, don't despair.
Many of us have done this and finally come through
to successful sobriety.
Try to remember that alcoholism is an extremely
serious human condition, and that relapses
are as possible in this ailment as in others.
Recovery can still follow. Even after setbacks,
if you continue to want to get well, and remain willing
to try new approaches,
our experience convinces us that you have embarked
with hundreds of thousands of companions
on the path of a happy, healthy destiny.
We hope we see you among us in person.
But whatever track you travel,
along with us or on your own,
you go with our strongest good wishes.


Thought to Ponder....

May the road always lead where you need to be.
