12 Steps Program: Daily AA Inspiration

Daily Inspiration from the Recovery Foundation

STRIKING GOLD

Like a gaunt prospector, belt drawn in over the last ounce of food, our pick struck gold. Joy at our release from a lifetime of frustration knew no bounds. Father feels he has struck something better than gold. For a time he may not see at once that he has barely scratched a limitless lode which will pay dividends only if he mines it for the rest of his life and insists on giving away the entire product.
When I talk with a newcomer to A.A., my past looks me straight in the face. I see the pain in those hopeful eyes; I extend my hand, and then the miracle happens; I become healed. My problems vanish as I reach out to this trembling soul.
