AA Thought for the Day

We saw that the more AA minded its own business
the greater its general influence would become.
Medicine and religion began to borrow
some of our ideas and experience.
So did research, rehabilitation, and education.
All sorts of therapeutic groups began to spring up. . .
They, too, borrowed from AA,
but they made their own adaptations. . .
Our influence has not been confined just to these fields. . .
It crops out in political and business life.
People who know alcoholics and their families
are deeply affected. . .
Today we understand and accept this paradox:
The more AA sticks to its primary purpose,
the greater will be its helpful influence everywhere.

Thought to Ponder....

Shoemaker, stick to thy last!
... better do one thing supremely well
than many badly.
