One Day at a Time in Al-Anon:
Heard at an Al-Anon meeting: “Before I came to Al-Anon, it was like groping around in a dark room, trying to sidestep the obstacles without being able to see them. Because there was no light, I was constantly getting hurt because I tripped over things, or bumped into them.
“Then I came into Al-Anon and learned that I have the power to turn on the light, to get a clear view of my life, its difficulties and good things. Often I still forget to turn on the light. I still hurt myself. But I’m getting better as I do more reading and living the program.”
Today’s Reminder:
Looking for light on a grim situation? Here it is, in Al-Anon. Nobody can force you to accept it, but you’ll want to when you learn how much easier it can become to deal with life’s inevitable problems. As one member put it: “I see things differently now.”
“…and God said: Let there be Light…” — Genesis
“…light always dispels the darkness.”
