AA Thought for the Day

On Borrowed Time

May we never forget that we live by the grace of God -- on borrowed time;
that anonymity is better than acclaim;
that for us as a movement poverty is better than wealth.
And may we reflect with ever deepening conviction,
that we shall never be at our best except when we hew only to the primary
spiritual aim of AA.
That of carrying its message to the alcoholic who still suffers alcoholism.
- Bill W., April 1948.
