AA Thought for the Day

One Drink
If hundreds of experiences have shown him that one drink means another debacle
with all its attendant suffering and humiliation, why is it he takes that one drink?
Why can't he stay on the water wagon? What has become of the common sense and will power
that he still sometimes displays with respect to other matters?
- Alcoholics Anonymous, p. 22
