AA Thought for the Day

Straighten Out The Past
Under no condition do we criticize such a person or argue.
Simply we tell him that we will never get over drinking until
we have done our utmost to straighten out the past. We are
there to sweep off our side of the street, realizing that nothing
worth while can be accomplished until we do so, never trying
to tell him what he should do. His faults are not discussed.
We stick to our own.

Thanks to all of you for sharing so generously of your experience, strength and hope in carrying the AA message.
Grateful to serve,
