I know that I am a walking miracle.
Literally overnight,
I went from years of twenty-four-hour crash drinking
to total sobriety, after everything had failed
except total surrender to the AA program.
From that foundation,
I am able to see certain glimmers of progress. . .
I have known all along, after all,
that my underlying problem was not drinking but living . . .
And as I peel away the layers of day-to-day expediency,
I realize that my zigzag, erratic, and inconsistent course
was in the general direction of progress all the time.
That's good.
Life is a steady drizzle of small things -- carry an umbrella.
