AA Thought for the Day
October 22, 2006
Bankruptcy
Who cares to admit complete defeat?
Practically no one, of course.
Every natural instinct cries out against the idea
of personal powerlessness.
It is truly awful to admit that, glass in hand,
we have warped our minds into such an obsession
that only an act of Providence
can remove it from us.
No other kind of bankruptcy is like this one.
Alcohol, now become the rapacious creditor,
bleeds us of all self-sufficiency
and all will to resist its demands.
Thought to Ponder....
If you think you are an alcoholic, chances are you are.
