Turning dreams into success stories

Prior to recovery, I rarely finished projects attributing much of my lack of completion to being a dreamer in the classic Pisces mold. Not finishing projects is also a widely held attribute by active alcoholics and addicts.

My latest project is to put bookmarkers in all 43 of the King County Libraries with information about 12-step meetings for people having problems with alcohol. Nearly 5000 bookmarkers were printed, cut and collated for each of the libraries. Big libraries get big packets and smaller libraries get smaller packets. Later this week the packets will be delivered to the library distribution center. The LDC will then ship them out to the 43 libraries. Relative to other local projects of this sort, this will be a huge success story in carrying the message to the still suffering alcoholic.

I am grateful for having the wherewithal to turn dreams into reality. It feels good.
