TAKING IT EASY -

"If we are careless
and fail to grasp the
spiritual meaning of this
step, we may have difficul-
ties and stir up old trou-
bles. One danger is in
being  too hard  on
ourselves." (The
Basic Text,
p. 37)




BREATHE -

"Here we ask God [or 
our H.P.* ] for inspiration, 
an intuitive thought or a deci- 
sion. We relax and take it easy.
We don't struggle. We are often
surprised how the right  an-
swers come after we have
tried this for a while."
(The Big Book,
p. 86)




"Must be out-of-doors
enough to get experience 
of wholesome reality, as a ball-
ast to thought and sentiment. 
Health requires this relax-
ation, this aimless life." 

Henry David Thoreau (1817 - 1862) U.S. poet / novelist
