AA Thought for the Day

Sometimes, an AA member will talk about
taking the various parts of the program in cafeteria style --
selecting what he likes
and letting alone what he does not want.
Maybe others will come along and pick up the unwanted parts --
or maybe that member himself will go back later
and take some of the ideas he previously rejected.
However, it is good to remember the temptation in a cafeteria
to pick up nothing but a lot of desserts or starches or salads
or some other food we particularly like.
It serves as a reminder to us to keep a balance in our lives.
In recovering from alcoholism we found
that we needed a balanced diet of ideas.

Thought to Ponder....

The express elevator to sobriety doesn't work --
please use the Steps.
