Today I am grateful...
- that I have experience, strength and hope to share
- that in dealing with someone that can't manage to stay sober, I must remember this quote by Bill W: "Our chief responsibility to the newcomer is an adequate presentation of the program. If he does nothing or argues, we do nothing but maintain our own sobriety. If he starts to move ahead, even a little, with an open mind, we then break our necks to help in every way we can."
- that this weekend I saw firsthand how cunning, baffling and powerful this disease is
- for 'modern miracles'
- that I work the coffee bar today
What we really have is a daily reprieve, contingent on the maintenance of our spiritual condition. ~Big Book, pp 85

Hi Scott, I either haven't read and don't remember reading that line by Bill W. I'm struggling how to "help" someone I love and boy did I appreciate reading it today! Thanks and blessings.
Thank you so much for that Bill W. quote. I really needed that today.
