AA Thought for the Day

July 29, 2006

Spirituality

Spirituality is an awakening --
or is it all the loose ends woven together
into a mellow fabric?
It's understanding -- or is it all the knowledge
one need ever know?
It's freedom -- if you consider fear slavery.
It's confidence -- or is it the belief that a higher power
will see you through any storm or gale?
It's adhering to the dictates of your conscience --
or is it a deep, genuine, living concern for the people
and the planet?
It's peace of mind in the face of adversity.
It's a keen and sharpened desire for survival.
