AA Thought for the Day


November 28, 2005

Progress

As I peel away the layers of day-to-day expediency,
I realize that my zigzag, erratic, and inconsistent course
was in the general direction of progress all the time. . .
Throughout this whole adventure,
the only consistency I have maintained
is an absolute and total faith in AA, come what may.
Happiness happens when results exceed expectations.
Maybe this is working after all.
Deep down, there is also a warm, small ball of faith,
always there, never dimmed, unexplainable,
asking nothing, but giving much.
To define it or try to bounce it would distort or destroy it.
It just is, that's all.

Thought to Ponder . . .

Life is a steady drizzle of small things -- carry an umbrella.
