On a rough sea voyage, Kevin groaned
that the only thing keeping him alive
was the hope of dying.
—Irish Bull (Anon)
Reflection
Some of us can't go on sea journeys, even on canoe
trips, without suffering seasickness. Yet, we keep on
tripping in the hope of one day finding our sea legs. So
it is with the addict: we hope to ingest or imbibe with
no ill effects.
Affirmation
If needs be, let me stroll on a canal tow path, sur-
rounded by the serenity of nature and the song of
birds.
