AA 'Big Book' - Quote
Every day is a day when we must carry the vision of God's will into all of our activities. 'How can I best serve Thee - Thy will ( not mine ) be done.' These are thoughts which must go with us constantly. We can exercise our will power along this line all we wish. It is the proper use of the will. - Pg. 85 - Into Action

Our disease is NOT the drug, it is a system malfunction in the person. This malfunction is in the brain (neurochemistry), in the mind (irrationality), and in the spirit (immorality). Only by healing all three do we have any hopes of recovering.
May I understand that I am not fighting the chemicals that made me sick, I am fighting the malfunctions that make me want to use them.
Giving Back
Today I give something to the community of people in which I find myself. I look around me and wonder what I might add to the world, to someone else's day and I do it. I recognize that giving and receiving are one channel, that when I open my heart to give, I simultaneously open it to receive as well.

Egotism is that certain something that enables a man in a rut to think he's in a groove.
I am never in a rut when I can answer this question, 'What Step am I working now?'

Today I'm willing to take responsibility for my own life.
I am willing to grow up and let go of my parents. I am filled with the sense of my own power and I choose not to give it away.
