A Promise to Myself

By Jeff Opfer 
I will keep breathing
            forgiving
            listening
            believing
I will be supple 
          creative
          silent
          encouraging
I will cultivate discipline
                 compassion
                 restraint
                 understanding
To become sober
          abundant
          radiant
          and free

    I love you man! Thanks for the letter! Snail mail is so good, I forgot. I’ve always been terrible at it too. You need me to send you something? I seen to be ok at that…

      No, you’re good man. Things are looking up. I love you too brother. Send me a letter, whenever, no rush. I’ll send you my new address as soon as I have it. So don’t send anything until I give you that. Glad to hear from you.
