Description

Bird Feet In Concrete is a unique daily meditation book for codependent women and men and any others in recovery who continue to seek the good life promised in the 12 Steps.

Bird Feet is an intelligent and thoughtful personal aide to exploring topics encountered along a spiritual path, topics that are rarely addressed in 12 Step literature or meetings. Here is a deeper, broader, and funnier slant on living a good life. Many of us in recovery have a special kind of struggle. While grateful that recovery has saved our lives, we can’t resist trying to understand reality more deeply. We ask questions that the Steps don’t address – questions about ourselves, about our relationships, about recovery, and about the universe. Bird Feet thoughtfully weaves science, philosophy, religion, and 12 Step lore together with the author’s personal experiences and quirky observations. The result is an engaging, thought-provoking set of commentaries that range from inspiring to heartbreaking to comic. The author, a successful innovator and senior executive, came to the Steps twenty years ago when his life gave way to the chaos of loving an alcoholic father and an alcoholic wife. In Al-Anon recovery, he has been a member, sponsor, speaker, and trusted servant. His 366 short meditations full of humanity, insight, and humor help us enjoy, day by day, that good life we seek to practice. The book’s whimsical title is taken from the meditation included for February 29th where a prosaic slab of pedestrian sidewalk becomes a point of enlightenment.
