TRANSITIONING

DS is taking care of business and I am released from the bondage of worrying about his future my attention turns toward what the bottom up is all about. I've tried to read about it but I don't find any nuggets.  I am looking for the main theme in the bottom . In spite of notable men like Trump and Napoleon the bottom keeps us glued to reality. John Irving for instance writes about outliers. In the world according to Garp he writes about a feminist mother who has no interest in sex but commits rape. I don't see how we survive as a people if we are about outliers, pundits, presidents, and popes.  When I talk to people about bottom up processing their eyes glaze over. Even one of my former colleagues didn't know what bottom up processing was. I have to find a way to get peoples eyes to light up because when we work hard  as ordinary people things get better. I have spent an entire lifetime foolishly hoping for a better leadership and failed to find it.  But I am fearful that the bottom is being poisoned by detritus sprinkling down from above. We are so depressed as a People that one in six Americans are taking A prescription drug for depression or anxiety. Another bunch are continuing to smoke cigarettes  and drink fast quantities of whiskey and another bunch is trying to find the perfect killer weed. It is called killer weed because it keeps us from worrying about anything important and laughing about everything that we see around us.

So I think in AA I have found the bottom and hope to find out how they process and how they can help us to find our way.
