And the more he's there, the more he hears the message, and the more it'll start sinking in that those stories are not so different from his own. Hopefully, that will help him more than I ever could!<br /><br />Thanks!<br />BJGlitterstimhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14821742145813306444noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6471555.post-60057073773924355602009-05-28T11:13:26.118-06:002009-05-28T11:13:26.118-06:00Sounds like Old BF is in progress, but not nearly ...Sounds like Old BF is in progress, but not nearly there yet. You can't really take a drink now and then and do AA. But maybe as time goes on the message will "take." At least he's in a place where people are saying stuff he needs to hear, even if he can't quite hear it yet.

Past that, well, that's his own agenda.Ronjazzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17472979072931454332noreply@blogger.com
