Humility and Responsibility
All A.A. progress can be reckoned in terms of just two words: humility and responsibility.
Our whole spiritual development can be accurately measured by our degree of adherence
to these magnificent standards. Ever deepening humility, accompanied by an ever greater
willingness to accept and to act upon clear cut obligations—these are truly our touchstones
for all growth in the life of the spirit. They hold up to us the very essence of right being and
right doing. It is by them that we are enabled to find and to do God's will.

Thought to Ponder . . .
Learning is the very essence of humility; the two walk hand in hand.
