Personal Powerlessness
Who cares to admit complete defeat? Practically no one,
of course. Every natural instinct cries out against the idea of
personal powerlessness. It is truly awful to admit that, glass
in hand, we have warped our minds into such an obsession
for destructive drinking that only an act of providence can
remove it from us.
- Twelve Steps and Twelve Traditions, (Step One) p. 21
Thought to Ponder
Within our wonderful new world,
we have found freedom from our fatal obsession.
