AA Thought for the Day

When I first walked into an AA meeting,
I had that wonderful feeling of belonging.
Talking with the people there,
I discovered I was not a freak;
I was not the only person in the world
who had done the kind of things I had done,
had hurt the people I loved most.
I was grateful to learn that I was suffering from an illness.
I had been afraid that I might be going out of my mind.
Later, I learned that alcoholism is a threefold illness,
and that I had indeed been ill mentally,
physically, and spiritually.

Thought to Ponder....

The whole world became mine
when I had nowhere else to go.
