AA Thought for the Day
June 30, 2007
Prudence
We are in a strange contrast to the world about us,
and we devoutly hope we shall stay that way.
In these perilous times this will be the collective prudence
that we shall constantly need.
It will guarantee our effectiveness, safety, and survival as nothing else can.
Our collective prudence respecting money, fame, and controversy
-- derived of course from our Twelve Traditions --
has continued to make AA new hosts of friends,
and, just as importantly, no enemies.
- Bill W., November 1959.
Thought to Ponder....
Prudence is rational concern without worry.
