AA Thought for the Day

Unmanageability
All the laws that are at work in the world are going to make every life unmanageable
to one degree or another from time to time.
But for the alcoholic there is not only an additional danger,
but also an additional opportunity.
AA offers us a program of recovery from our past feelings about the unmanageability of life,
a program that put life's unmanageability into perspective.
That's more than most of the rest of the people in the world have going for them
when they find their lives have become unmanageable.
- The Best of the Grapevine [Vol. 2], p. 58
