AA Thought for the Day
January 31, 2009
No Reservation
Most of us have believed that if we remained sober for a long stretch,
we could thereafter drink normally. . .
We have seen the truth demonstrated again and again:
"Once an alcoholic, always an alcoholic."
Commencing to drink after a period of sobriety,
we are in a short time as bad as ever.
If we are planning to stop drinking, there must be no reservation of any kind,
nor any lurking notion that someday we will be immune to alcohol.
Thought to Ponder....
If we want to quit drinking, we are going to have to quit drinking.
