Our Drinking Story

A woman shared at last night’s AA meeting that her program of recovery required her to practice love and tolerance, and in the next breath lashed out at “bleeding deacons” and their lack of human decency. There was nothing of the bleeding deacon sort manifesting at the meeting, nor any evident lack of human decency. To be quite honest, I couldn’t help but wonder if her venting was directed at me. We have had our differences in the past.
