AA Thought for the Day

Serenity

I felt confused because I wasn't sure what it was
that I was feeling,
and then I realized I was experiencing serenity.
It was a good feeling, but where had it come from?
Then I realized it had come from
". . . as the result of these Steps."
The program may not always be easy to practice,
but I had to acknowledge that my serenity
had come to me after working the Steps.

Thought to Ponder....

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