Daily Reflections
*~*~*~*~*^Daily Reflections^*~*~*~*~*
THE CIRCLE AND THE TRIANGLE
The circle stands for the whole world of A.A., and the triangle
stands for A.A.'s Three Legacies of Recovery, Unity, and Service.
Within our wonderful new world, we have found freedom from our
fatal obsession.
A.A. COMES OF AGE, p. 139
Early in my A.A. life, I became employed in its services and I
found the explanation of our society's logo to be very appropriate.
First, a circle of love and service with a well-balanced triangle
inside, the base of which represents our Recovery through the
Twelve Steps. Then the other two sides, representing Unity and
Service, respectively. The three sides of the triangle are equal.
As I grew in A.A. I soon identified myself with this symbol. I
am the circle, and the sides of the triangle represent three
aspects of my personality: physical, emotional sanity,
spirituality, the latter forming the symbol's base. Taken
together, all three aspects of my personality translate into
a sober and happy life.
