AA Thought for the Day


May 31, 2008

Improved Perception

An improved perception of humility starts a revolutionary change
in our outlook.
Our eyes begin to open to the immense values
which have come straight out of painful ego-puncturing.
Until now, our lives have been largely devoted
to running from pain and problems.
Escape via the bottle was always our solution.

Thought to Ponder . . .

Humility is not thinking less of yourself, but thinking of yourself less.




AA-related 'Alconym' . . .



Choosing Humility Allows New Gifts and Energy.


Day by Day is the only way....
