~ CHANGE ~

:~*~:. .:~*~:. .:~*~:. .:~*~:. .:~*~:. .:~*~:

"If you would truly wish to understand something, try to change it."

Kurt Lewin

:~*~:. .:~*~:. .:~*~:. .:~*~:. .:~*~:. .:~*~:

There is nothing more powerful to me

than this one thought. My entire program

teaches me to change the fellow who came

in or he will surely drag me back

out. Without change there is no

hope. Without hope there is no peace or

serenity.

The "how to" is simply and strongly told

in the Big Book of AA. On page 28 it is

plain that we must find and maintain a

spiritual fitness in order to

survive. Change is the key to open the

door, and change is impossible without a

power greater than ourselves. This,

truly, is the easier, softer way. May

you find Him now.


ONE DAY AT A TIME . . .

I am willing to allow the God of my understanding to change the person I was into the person He wishes me to be.
