AA Thought for the Day

Old Threadbare Idea
The almost certain consequences that follow taking even a glass of beer
do not crowd into the mind to deter us. If these thoughts occur, they are
hazy and readily supplanted with the old threadbare idea that this time
we shall handle ourselves like other people. There is a complete failure
of the kind of defense that keeps one from putting his hand on a hot stove.
