Ordinary Recovery
This site is dedicated to the re-discovery of the teachings of the ordinary in an age of spectacle. It is our hope to reconnect to the simple and fulfilling joys of poetry, family story-telling, love letters and companionship. We need them just as we need to pray to alleviate suffering. Every poem, every story, every love letter, every moment with a loved companion can be an expression of just those prayers. Please join in.

"Let me respectfully remind you
Life and death
are of supreme importance.
Time swiftly passes by
and opportunity is lost.
Each of us should strive to awaken.
Awaken. Take heed.
Do not squander your life."
The Evening Gatha

Silver Tea: A Daily Letter to Will Alexander
Everyday insights and reflections on our life together.

 

       
The Silver Tea Project

Bill Alexander has created the Silver Tea Project, which was inaugurated in Madison, Wisconsin on the weekend of February 4 – 6. This lifelong endeavor is committed to the fulfillment of Bill’s vow to put an end to the cycle of drug and alcohol abuse in families.

To that end, Bill will travel anywhere that he is asked, offering seminars, lectures, workshops, and institutional or individual counseling. This work can be done in venues from living rooms, to hospitals, to school auditoriums, to corporate headquarters. There is no charge for this work. Bill asks for donations, which will be used solely to provide continuing support for this vital project.

Please feel free to contact Bill at .
