Worrying is like a rocking chair


 

I had read the following quote is conference approved literature in AlAnon, but can't find it in my books. Someone said they read it in C2C. I check all the "worrying" and "fear" pages, but can't find it. I also know I read it somewhere, too. Can anyone help me? I am chairing soon and would like to use it as part of my topic on fear and worrying. 

"Worrying is like a rocking chair, gives you something to do but it won't get you I any where." If it's conference approved literature, where do I find it?

 

Thanks!
