AA Thought for the Day

Growing
We have learned that the satisfaction of instincts cannot be the sole end
and aim of our lives. If we place instincts first, we have got the cart before
the horse; we shall be pulled backward into disillusionment. But when we are
willing to place spiritual growth first—then and only then do we have a real chance.
