A “LIMITLESS LODE”
Good Morning!!!
God grant me the Serenity
to accept the things
I cannot change;
Courage to change
the things I can;
and Wisdom
to know the difference.
Thy will, not mine, be done.

A “LIMITLESS LODE”
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 try to
hug the new treasure to himself.
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 insist 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.
