Reflection for March 17

When God made time, He made plenty of it,
so what are you rushing for?

—Irish proverb

Reflection

There is no need to rush headlong into sobriety so long
as I do not drink anything in the way of booze today,
or ingest anything else in the drug department. If I
abstain today, I can begin a nice, slow recovery, and
time will not be the only factor.

Affirmation

O True Friend of the Drinker, help me assuage all
thirsts and cravings by the simple act of drinking a
pure glassful of water.
