DAILY REFLECTIONS
1) Such is the paradox of A.A. regeneration: strength rising out of complete defeat and weakness, the loss of one’s old life as a condition for finding a new one.
-A.A. COMES OF AGE, p.46
AS BILL SEES IT
2) Never talk down to an alcoholic from any moral or spiritual hilltop; simply lay out the kit of spiritual tools for his inspection. Show him how they worked with you. Offer him friendship and Fellowship.
-ALCOHOLICS ANONYMOUS, p. 95
LIVING SOBER, p. 20
3) The beauty of sober sleep, once it is achieved, is the sheer pleasure of waking up – no real hangover, no worries about what may have happened in last night‘s blackout. Instead, it means facing the new day, refreshed, hopeful, and grateful.
4) “The moment one definitely commits oneself, then Providence moves, too.”
-Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
