Self-Pity
Self-pity is one of the most unhappy and consuming defects that
we know. It is a bar to all spiritual progress and can cut off all
effective communication with our fellows because of its inordinate
demands for attention and sympathy. It is a maudlin form of
martyrdom, which we can ill afford.

- As Bill Sees It, (Maudlin Martyrdom) No. 238

Thought to Ponder . . .
The smallest package in the world is
an alcoholic all wrapped up in himself.

 

AA-related 'Alconym'
P L O M  =   Poor Little Old Me.
