AA Thought for the Day

May 14, 2007

Service

All I thought about as I was making the coffee was making the coffee
and how people could enjoy it.
At my sponsor's suggestion, I stood near the coffeepot
and welcomed everyone who came by.
I must have experienced a million smiles in a very short time.
And when I pushed the broom all I concentrated on
was the dust rising from it as I moved across the floor.
My troubles were gone for the time that I was doing these things.
And so it can be for you.
If you can't live and you can't die, make coffee.
