Bird Feet In Concrete is a unique daily meditation book for codependent women, men, and others in recovery who continue seeking the good life promised in the Twelve Steps.Bird Feet is an intelligent and thoughtful personal aide to exploring topics encountered along a spiritual path, rarely addressed in 12step 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, our relationships, recovery, and the universe.Bird Feet thoughtfully weaves science, philosophy, religion, and 12step lore with the author's personal experiences and quirky observations. The result is an engaging, thoughtprovoking 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 AlAnon 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, the good life we seek to practice.The book's whimsical title is taken from the meditation for February 29th, where a prosaic slab of pedestrian sidewalk becomes a point of enlightenment.Author's Note: If you are interested in my personal recovery story and a close look at the Twelve Steps as I understand them, try Bird Feet and the Twelve Steps: A thoughtful seeker finds AlAnon recovery. Some folks have said this is the best introduction to the steps they've ever used.People also have asked me, "What's the difference between this daily reader and your other one, Daily Thoughts and Meditations: Steps on the path to recovery?" Although they have many of the same ideas (and some of the same words), this book, Bird Feet, presents the ideas more or less randomly throughout the year. The other book, Daily Thoughts, organizes the thoughts and meditations into major topics: Getting Real, Getting Clear, Helping Me, Staying Clear, Working Together, How Things Work, and Helping Others. I like this newer book a little better, but other folks don't always agree. Some people use both.
