AA Thought for the Day
August 29, 2007
Back to Basics
Although alcohol is not part of my life
and I no longer have the compulsion to drink,
it can still occur to me what a good drink tastes like and what it can do for me,
from my stand-at-attention alcoholic taste buds
to my stretched out tingling toes. . .
Such thoughts are like red flags, telling me that something is not right,
that I am stretched beyond my sober limit.
It's time to get back to basic AA and see what needs changing.
That special relationship with alcohol will always be there,
waiting to seduce me again.
Thought to Ponder....
Without change I am just a non-drinking drunk.
