Making Coffee
All I thought about as I was making the coffee was making the coffee and how people could enjoy it.
At my sponsor's suggestion, I stood near the coffeepot and welcomed everyone who came by.
I must have experienced a million smiles in a very short time.  And when I pushed the broom,
all I concentrated on was the dust rising from it as I moved across the floor.
My troubles were gone for the time that I was doing these things.  And so it can be for you.
If you can't live and you can't die, make coffee.
- The Home Group, p. 43
