AA Thought for the Day
February 15, 2007
Pickles
We are convinced, after countless attempts we made
to prove otherwise, that alcoholism is incurable --
just like some other illnesses.
It cannot be "cured" in this sense:
We cannot change our body chemistry
and go back to being the normal, moderate drinkers
lots of us seemed to be in our youth.. .
We can no more make that change
than a pickle can change itself
back into a cucumber.
Thought to Ponder....
Within our wonderful new world,
we have found freedom from our fatal obsession.
