YESTERDAY, TODAY

                          AND TOMORROW
            wo of these are two days a week you shouldn’t worry about.
        TThey’re two days that shouldn’t torment you or cause you any fear.

        One is YESTERDAY with it’s fears and concerns, weaknesses and
        deviations, trials and tribulations. Yesterday is gone forever and
        beyond our reach. Even the power of all the gold in the world couldn’t
        give us back YESTERDAY. We can’t erase a single word we said
        yesterday. It was gone forever YESTERDAY.


        The other day we shouldn’t worry about is TOMORROW. It’s close,
        but its problems, adversities and difficulties shouldn’t plague you;
        nor should its fair promises and dismal disappointments worry you.
        TOMORROW is beyond our reach.

        The sun will come out TOMORROW to shine in a clear sky or to
        hide behind thick clouds, but it will come out. We shouldn’t have to
        worry about it unless it doesn’t. Tomorrow is closer than you think.

        We only have one day left: TODAY. Anyone can face their problems
        one day at a time and stay SOBER. When we add the burdens of
        those two eternities, yesterday and tomorrow, that’s when we fall
        into depression and take the first drink.

        It’s not TODAY’s things that drive us crazy. What makes us so crazy
        and pushes us to drink is the remorse and bitterness for something
        that happened YESTERDAY and the fear for what might happen
        TOMORROW.


        In the meantime, let’s settle with living one day at a time and we’ll
        keep SOBER.

        An A.A. member never makes the promise of not drinking again the
        rest of their life. You don’t know if you might drink TOMORROW
        but you can abstain from it. You can refrain yourself from drinking
        in the 24 hours of TODAY.
        On one side, YESTERDAY has already passed and on the other
        side nobody knows what will happen TOMORROW. Consequently,
