THE GIFT OF BONDING
Relieve me of the bondage of self, that I may better do Thy
will
ALCOHOLICS ANONYMOUS, p. 63
Many times in my alcoholic state, I drank to establish a
bond between myself and others, but I succeeded only in
establishing the bondage of alcoholic loneliness. Through
the A.A. way of life, I have received the gift of bonding—
with those who were there before me, with those who are
there now, and with those yet to come. For this gracious
gift from God, I am forever grateful.
