The Story Of The Jaywalker
This is a story I relate to that compares continually picking up the first drink or drug to
that of being a jaywalker.
And it goes like this:
"Our behavior is as absurd and incomprehensible with respect to the first drink as
that of an individual with a passion, say, for jay-walking.
He gets a thrill out of skipping in front of fast-moving vehicles. He enjoys himself for a
few years in spite of friendly warnings. Up to this point you would label him as
a foolish chap having queer ideas of fun.
Luck then deserts him and he is slightly injured several times in succession. You would
expect him, if he were normal, to cut it out.
Presently he is hit again and this time has a fractured skull. Within a week after leaving
the hospital a fast-moving trolley car breaks his arm. He tells you he has decided to
stop jay-walking for good, but in a few weeks he breaks both legs."
"On through the years this conduct continues, accompanied by his continual promises to
be careful or to keep off the streets altogether. Finally, he can no longer work, his wife
gets a divorce and he is held up to ridicule.
He tries every known means to get the jaywalking idea out of his head. He shuts
himself up in an asylum, hoping to mend his ways. But the day he comes out he races
in front of a fire engine, which breaks his back. Such a man would be crazy, wouldn't he?"
"You may think our illustration is too ridiculous. But is it?
We, who have been through the wringer, have to admit if we substituted alcoholism
or any addiction for jay-walking, the illustration would fit exactly. However intelligent we
may have been in other respects, where alcohol (drugs) has been involved, we have
been strangely insane.
Above Excerpts Reprinted with Permission of AA World Services, inc
Personally I have to admit that continually running back to the bottle and drugs
after all the consequences I faced such as DUI's, Jail, Psych wards etc was pretty
crazy. Who in there right mind would do that? Right?
But I did, again and again. Until I raised the white flag.
Have we had enough yet?
