I had constructed my prison with bars of self-will and self-indulgence, from which I could not escape. Occasional dry spells that seemed to promise freedom would turn out to be little more than hopes of a reprieve. True escape required a willingness to follow whatever right actions were needed to turn the lock. With that willingness and action, both the lock and the bars themselves opened for me. Continued willingness and action keep me free\u2014in a kind of extended daily probation\u2014that need never end.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>From the book\u00a0<em>Daily Reflections.<\/em><br \/>\nCopyright \u00a9 1990 by Alcoholics Anonymous World Services, Inc.
