AA Thought for the Day

Bedrock
But upon entering A.A. we soon take quite another view of this absolute humiliation.
We perceive that only through utter defeat are we able to take our first steps toward
liberation and strength. Our admissions of personal powerlessness finally turn out to be
firm bedrock upon which happy and purposeful lives may be built.
- Twelve Steps & Twelve Traditions, p. 21
Thought to Ponder
Avoidance is not the key; surrender opens the door.
AA-related 'Alconym'
S W A T = Surrender, Willingness, Action, Trust.
Thanks to all of you for sharing so generously of your experience, strength and hope in carrying the AA message.
Grateful to serve,
