Open-mindedness




Faced with alcoholic destruction, we became as open minded on spiritual matters as we had tried to be on other questions.
In this respect alcohol was the great persuader.
It finally beat us into a state of reasonableness.
Sometimes this was a tedious process; we hope no one else will be prejudiced for as long as some of us were.
-- Alcoholics Anonymous, p. 48


Minds are like parachutes -- they won't work unless they're open.


We cannot change the directions of the wind, but we can adjust our sails. Living without an aim is like sailing without a compass. Have a beautiful day unless you plan otherwise. ... B-)
