A Sturdy Start




We still don't think it is very smart to keep trying to see in the dark if you can simply switch on a lamp and use its light.
We didn't get sober entirely on our own.
That isn't the way we learned to stay sober.
And the full enjoyment of living sober isn't a one-person job, either.
When we could look, even temporarily, at just a few new ideas different from our old ones, we had already begun to make a sturdy start.
-- Living Sober, p.73


I stood in the sunlight at last.


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-)
