February 19 Good Directions


“It takes little talent to see clearly what lies under one’s nose,

but a good deal of talent to know in which direction to point that organ.” ~ W. H. Auden

Most people know which way their nose is pointed, except for the drunk

or the emotionally unbalanced who get their direction from their addiction.

The sufferer usually can’t believe, nor do not want to believe,

what lies right under their nose.

Seek direction from family, the functional ones, friends, the sober ones,

and a Higher Power, the one whose directions everyone should be following.

Happiness is not in where we stand, but in what direction we are moving,

we must sail sometimes with the wind and sometimes against it.

Happiness is clearly seeing good in the direction one is headed.

Happiness is helping someone help themselves.
