Every day is a day when we must carry the vision of God’s will into all of our activities. (Alcoholics Anonymous, p. 85)

Most days should be enough.
When is every single one needed?
When is concensus insufficient?
Ninety-five is a darned good grade.
So why EVERY day?
How come into ALL activities?
Doesn’t the Big Book say
progress, not perfection?
Good enough is good enough,
isn’t it? After all, I only commit to today,
not forever and ever. Just one day.
Just today. Just this day. Tomorrow’s
beyond my control. I can’t tell you
what I’ll do then. Today. One day,
not all of them. But the problem is,
I can’t take today off. But just today.
Every day.
