Known as 'the little black book' among AA folks, it's a daily devotional reader. Reading a passage daily helps reinforce AA's mantra of "
one day at a time allowing one to contemplate it through the day. While it definitely has a Christian bias via a "higher power" dogma, it strives to leave religion out & concentrate on spirituality.

Daily devotional for AA members. Interesting read. I wonder if my father used this book for encouragement. ( )

Known as 'the little black book' among AA folks, this is a daily reader. Many read a passage every morning & contemplate it through the day. I did so for a couple of years. While it definitely has a Christian bias, it strives to leave religion out & concentrate on spirituality.

It starts off with a wonderful Sanskrit proverb:

Look to this day,
For it is life,
The very life of life.
In its brief course lie all
The realities and verities of existence,
The bliss of growth,
The splendor of action,
The glory of power --

For yesterday is but a dream,
And tomorrow is only a vision,
But today, well lived,
Makes every yesterday a dream of happiness
And every tomorrow a vision of hope.

Look well, therefore, to this day.


Sanskrit proverb
by Kalidasa,
Indian poet and playwright,
