AA Thought for the Day

Excuses
Some drinkers have excuses with which they are satisfied part of the time.
But in their hearts they really do not know why they do it.
Once this malady has a real hold, they are a baffled lot.
There is the obsession that somehow, someday, they will beat the game.
But they often suspect they are down for the count.
How true this is, few realize.
- Alcoholics Anonymous, (There Is A Solution) p. 23
