REMOVING “THE GROUND GLASS”
The moral inventory is a cool examination of the damages that
occurred to us during life and a sincere effort to look at them in a true
perspective. This has the effect of taking the ground glass out of us,
the emotional substance that still cuts and inhibits.
AS BILL SEES IT, p. 140
2) Prayer For The Day:
I pray that I may be led out of disorder into order. I pray that I may be
led out of failure into success.
3) ”I can choose to sit in perpetual sadness, immobilized by the gravity of
my loss, or I can choose to rise from the pain and treasure the most
precious gift I have – life itself.”
–Walter Anderson
4)AA ‘Big Book’ – Quote:
So we think cheerfulness and laughter make for usefulness. Outsiders are sometimes shocked when we burst into merriment over a seemingly tragic experience out of our past. But why shouldn’t we laugh? We have recovered, and have been given the power to help others. – Pg. 132 – The Family Afterwards
