Agreed, Carpe Diem... but live each day as though it is your last. That is why I think you can never tell your loved ones "I love you" too many times. And you can still do so, (tell him) Steve. Something tells me that you do.

VERY WELL PUT. I ALSO BELIEVE THAT YOU SHOULD CHOOSE VERY CAREFULLY WHAT YOU BLOW AT SOMEONE FOR. YOU HAVE TO ASK YOURSELF..."IF THIS PERSON WAS GONE TOMORROW...FOREVER...WAS IT WORTH IT TO SAY WHAT I SAID...OR ACT LIKE I ACTED?"

That's always wise yes....We never know when the day will come when we lose a loved one especially because it's not a definite how long we will spend on this earth...Making a wrong right as soon as possible and not letting foolish pride get in the way is always the best thing...that way there is never any regret....especially when the person is gone for good....

I firmly believe that when we pass away... we don't take any of our anger with us.
my heart goes out to you, good luck

I'm in recovery also (16 yrs sober) and all we can do is share our experience, strength and hope with others. You shared a painful part of yourself with a friend and that's what it's all about.

When I found I was not the father of my 2 yr old son, the anger and bitterness almost ate me alive. 3 yrs later I HAD to forgive. I couldn't stay sober otherwise. Over 26 yrs clean and sober now.

I been around the program for about 19 years. I did stay clean for 5 years and in those 5 years i found out that i was not an alcoholic but did stick around and still go from time to time. Forgiving yourself is where it all starts. Making admends is a hard thing to do at times and some times the admends is not excepted but it's knowing that your doing the right thing for you in order to grow in life. |
