AA Thought for the Day
April 5, 2007
Unity
In many self-governing countries we are now seeing
the inroads of ignorance, apathy, and power-seeking
upon democratic systems.
Their spiritual resources of right purpose
and collective intelligence are waning.
Consequently many a land has become so helpless
that the only answer is dictatorship.
Happily for us, there seems little prospect
of such a calamity in AA.
The life of each individual and of each group is built around
our Twelve Steps and Twelve Traditions.
We very well know the penalty for extensive disobedience
to these principles is death for the individual
and dissolution for the group.
- Bill W., 1962.
Thought to Ponder....
There is no strength without unity.
