Those Who Still Suffer
For
us, if we neglect those who are still sick, there is unremitting danger to our
own lives and sanity. TWELVE STEPS AND TWELVE TRADITIONS, p. 151
I
know the torment of drinking compulsively to quiet my nerves and my fears. I
also know the pain of white-knuckled sobriety. Today, I do not forget the
unknown person who suffers quietly, withdrawn and hiding in the desperate
relief of drinking. I ask my Higher Power to give me His guidance and the
courage to be willing to be His instrument to carry within me compassion and
unselfish actions. Let the group continue to give me the strength to do with
others what I cannot do alone.
