Welcome back to our latest edition of A Daily Reprieve. Page 59 of the book ‘12 Steps and 12 Traditions’ reads: “​Only by discussing ourselves, holding back nothing, only by being willing to take advice and to accept direction could we set foot on the road to straight thinking, solid honesty and genuine humility.” With it being the seventh month and in spirit of the seventh step – ​We humbly ask Him to remove our shortcomings​ – we received various perspectives on the topic of humility, and the one thing that stood out through it all – is that it is one of the cornerstones of recovery. We know that our shortcomings never get fully eradicated, but we can get​ removed​ or get some distance from them – which is to live a life of service and free from selfish actions. This allows us to experience humility in all its various forms, keeping the fellowship alive. There are a few articles, some poetry and other wonderful content in this edition of the Daily Reprieve. Each one is beautifully written from a personal experience or challenge, a painful relationship that yielded growth or a divine connection to a power greater than ourselves. Each of us here at the newsletter team is very grateful to be of service and we trust that you will get the same inspiration from it as we did. Until next time, The AA Newsletter Committee
