Final Thought:

"Hope is the ever-present theme in A.A. Many members once considered hopeless drunks now have many years of sobriety behind them.... Let it remind you that hope need never be abandoned and that you can help through your understanding of the illness and of A.A. itself and through your willingness to apply the program in your own daily life."
