Introduction	I keep a journal. Writing helps me clarify my thoughts. "We can walk gently on this earth and leave behind wisdom and love, or we can walk heavily and leave behind ignorance and hate. We can also choose to walk in apathy and leave nothing." I know a great deal about the consequences of addiction, about recovery, but little about addiction. The truth is we know very little about alcoholism. But there's another truth, a really great truth; We don't need to. I can live my life better even if I don't have all the answers, as long as I'm willing to do certain things--Give up self will, accept a higher will, clean up my act and help others--The short version of the 12 steps of course. You can live your life better without knowing what causes addiction or where it comes from. Is that not wonderful!
