AA Thought for the Day

August 7, 2006

Love

This seems to be the primary healing circuit:
an outgoing love of God's creation and His people,
by means of which we avail ourselves
of His love for us.
It is most clear that the real current can't flow
until our paralyzing dependencies are broken,
and broken at depth.
Only then can we possibly have a glimmer
of what adult love really is.
- Bill W., January 1958.
