AA Thought for the Day

Humility
Indeed, the attainment of greater humility is the foundation principle of each
of A.A.'s Twelve Steps. For without some degree of humility, no alcoholic can
stay sober at all. Nearly all A.A.'s have found, too, that unless they develop
much more of this precious quality than may be required just for sobriety,
they still haven't much chance of becoming truly happy.
- Twelve Steps and Twelve Traditions, (Step Seven) p. 70
Thought to Ponder
Learning is the very essence of humility; the two walk hand in hand.
