Aug. 10, 2012 - The Eye Opener

The Eye Opener
Friday, Aug. 10, 2012

As it is almost impossible to remain entirely anonymous, our membership carries with it grave responsibility.

Once we were drunks, and we “ain’t any more.” All your friends and neighbors know it. Sooner or later they will ask you about it and, if you answer them at all, it is probable that you will have to admit your membership in our Fellowswhip.

We will be watched constantly thereafter, for AA is on trial with a hopeful yet skeptical world and, as we succeed or fail, so will AA succeed or fail.

Guard your anonymity well if you can but, if you can’t - then guard AA well.
