[QUOTE="lovemysons, post: 253242, member: 3305"] Hey Jo, Just another here wanting to applaud your journey. I too learned so much from Al Anon, lol, someone once told me "there is a G-d and YOU are not it"...or another, "who nailed you to the cross". Ya, I had ALOT of problems with thinking I had the absolute answer to Everyone else's problems, could save and solve etc. One of the things that has probibly stuck with me most is now trying to communicate in a way that doesn't suggest I have ALL the answers, to speak like this: "you may be right"..."that could be true" "possibly" etc. To not come across as all knowing, ya know. And...to allow other people the dignity of figuring out for themselves. It is especially hard for me right now to draw the line while my lil grandson seems to be caught in the middle of some destructive issues involved in my young difficult child's life. I probibly need to hit my books again and make a meeting again soon. Hoping the very best for your Godson, S...So glad that he knows where to go and who to talk to. You are wonderful for being a listening ear to him. Hugs, Tammy [/QUOTE]
