Practicing
the A.A. program is like building a house. First I had to pour a big,
thick concrete slab on which to erect the house; that, to me, was the
equivalent of stopping drinking.
But it's pretty uncomfortable living
on a concrete slab, unprotected and exposed to the heat, cold, wind and
rain. So I built a room on the slab by starting to practice the
program.
The first room was rickety because I wasn't used to the work.
But as time passed, as I practiced the program, I learned to build
better rooms.
The more I practiced, and the more I built, the more
comfortable, and happy, was the home I now have to live in.
