AA Thought for the Day

March 26, 2008

Newcomers

When I talk with a newcomer in AA, my past looks me straight in the face.
I see the pain in those hopeful eyes, I extend my hand,
and then the miracle happens: I become healed.
My problems vanish as I reach out to this trembling soul.

Thought to Ponder....

Newcomers are the lifeblood of the program.
But our oldtimers are the arteries.
