Big Book Quote of the Day - May 21, 2009

There may be some wrongs we can never fully right. We don't worry about them if we can honestly say to ourselves that we would right them if we could."

- Alcoholics Anonymous, 4Th Edition, Into Action, pg 83

In doing my eighth step, I became willing to make amends to everyone on my list.  With the help of my sponsor, the list was reviewed and I allowed him to take out the people to whom my motives were not pure because I am still sick.  In Step 9, I was willing to do whatever it took to make it right.  The rewards that I received from doing this, I could never have comprehended while I was waiting to do the step.
