[QUOTE="JayPee, post: 754952, member: 23405"] I'm so sorry for your hurt and sorrow. It is so hard sometimes to practice all the things we should..."be the change", "turn them over to God" "let them learn from their consequences". Even tougher when no advice is taken on what they could possibly do to get into a better position. It's their journey as much as we'd like to steer it in a different direction there is nothing we can do to force the change on them. Try to take care of yourself amidst this. Ward off thoughts that will bring you down and make you think you have any control over making him better or talking sense into him. Pray, read, meditate, find something to laugh about and take the focus off his sadness. Our mind can take off on us and we in an instant have the worst case scenario of the future layed out before us. So difficult but one day at a time and lots of prayer and turning him over to God. Sending hugs. [/QUOTE]
