AA Thought for the Day

We Stand Ready
Under the lash of alcoholism, we are driven to A.A., and
there we discover the fatal nature of our situation. Then,
and only then, do we become as open-minded to conviction
and as willing to listen as the dying can be. We stand ready
to do anything which will lift the merciless obsession from us.
- Twelve Steps and Twelve Traditions, (Step One) p. 24
