Default Stools and Bottles - Daily Reminder

Day 01 - Stools & Bottles

First Daily Reminder -
Let's be honest today. Let's face facts. Alcohol is a beverage for most people but a drug for alcoholics. Our uncontrolled use of this narcotic has made us sick in body, mind and spirit. We are powerless over it. It threatens our lives and sanity.
Daily Inventory -
How alcoholic are we? Do we drink sanely? Are we all through fighting booze? Have we really hit bottom? Will we accept AA?

Suggested Meditation -
As sick alcoholics, we should join AA. As members, we should recall daily that we are arresting an incurable illness. That we are sick -- not plain crazy. Our uncontrollable drinking has placed us in a very bad spot. To take it or leave it alone -- that is the question. Drinking alcoholics can do neither -- that is our problem. To live sanely, we must leave it alone -- that is a act. Without AA this is impossible. AA is the best solution to our drinking problem.

Spiritual Contact -
Our Father, give us an understanding of our illness. Strengthen our efforts to overcome it. Lead us in the paths of contented sobriety.

Daily Physical Audit -
AA is made up of the persons who are attempting to compensate for a lifetime of mistakes. That is the premise upon which our recovery program is based. Through study and honest endeavor, we arrest our mental and physical illness. The baffling part of alcoholism is our disregard for health. We depend too much upon curing the disease when we should be building up healthy bodies to prevent it.
