The Gift of Gratitude

One way to keep a grateful heart is to remember what AA has given us. The following passages were selected from our vast Grapevine Story Archives, which goes back to 1944. Thank you for sharing your stories with us

“Love is the principle that guided my first friends in AA. They welcomed me without question into their Fellowship. They were not concerned about anything except that I was a drunk. I was asked if I wanted help, if I had a place to sleep that night, and if I’d care for a cup of coffee. I was allowed to be myself, as best I could. No demands were made, no expectations were declared, no conformity was required. I was simply invited to share what they offered.”
