Sometimes God lets you hit rock bottom so that you will discover that He is the rock at the bottom.
Everything will be okay at the end. If it is not okay, it is not the end.
You can't be played if you step out of the game.
Everything in your life is there because you choose, you allow it, or you accept it.
Your serenity is inversely proportional to your expectations.
Moderating one's drinking is like keeping a lion on a leash.
Coincidences are God being anonymous.
Someone else is praying for what you take for granted.
These are just a few of my favorites, that I just got out of my sobriety journal. All of them are words of wisdom shared by you wonderful people on SR!!

This was one of my favourites before I had drinking problems. I actually used to have it pinned on my desk at work...if only I realised how very true it was way back then..
