AA Thought for the Day

Awareness
You get just a little sobriety, and you get just a little humility.
Not much, just a little. Not the humility of sackcloth and ashes,
but the humility of a man who's glad he's alive and can serve.
You get just a little tolerance, not too much,
but just enough to sit and listen to the other guy. . .
And you realize that if you put all this together, you get a little humility,
a little tolerance, a little honesty, a little sincerity, a little prayer --
and a lot of AA.
