AA Thought for the Day

The Past
Whatever is done is over. It cannot be changed. But my attitude about
it can be changed through talking with those who have gone before and
with sponsors. I can wish the past never was, but if I change my actions
in regard to what I have done, my attitude will change. I won't have to
wish the past away. I can change my feelings and attitudes, but only
through my actions and the help of my fellow alcoholics.
