AA Thought for the Day

March 1, 2006

Discovery

I spent most of my life worrying about myself,
thinking I was unwanted, that I was unloved.
I've learned since being in AA
that the more I worry about me loving you,
and the less I worry about you loving me, the happier I'll be.
I discovered a fellowship of human beings
that I'd never had before.
I learned how to have self-respect. . .
I learned how to be a friend. . .
I have learned that the more I give, the more I will have;
the more I learn to give, the more I learn to live.
