Today's thought is:
Never play leapfrog with a unicorn.
- Unknown

As we work Step One, we accept that alcohol and other drugs are
poison to us. We accept our limits. This means we know that hanging
around our drinking or using "buddies" can remind us of "the good old
days." Hanging around "slippery places" means we could "slip" back
into our old ways. This isn't testing our sobriety; it's being reckless with
it.

So, let's accept our limits. Everybody has limits. When we know our
limits, we protect our recovery against the people and places that pull
us from our spiritual center. This is what true acceptance means.

Prayer for the Day
I pray for true acceptance. Higher Power, help me to stay away from
slippery places. I will protect the gift You've given me.

Action for the Day
Today, I'll list the people and places that are risky for me to be around.
I will share this list with my sponsor, my group, and my sober friends.
