AA Thought for the Day

Tradition Nine
“A.A., as such, ought never be organized; but we may create service
boards or committees directly responsible to those they serve.”

Unless each A.A. member follows to the best of his ability our
suggested Twelve Steps to recovery, he almost certainly signs
his own death warrant. His drunkenness and dissolution are
not penalties inflicted by people in authority; they result from
his personal disobedience to spiritual principles.
- Twelve Steps and Twelve Traditions, (Tradition Nine) p. 174
 

Thought to Ponder . . .
Great suffering and great love are AA's disciplinarians;
we need no others.
