I've seen other things though. I'm too well out spoken about recovery and Narcotics Anonymous for my flame to be blown out and I don't shelter it either.
But, one day I drove up to a store for Ice and this guy I know from the rooms pulls up and says "Aren't you glad today is so nice, thank God we ain't gotta use", he ggoes in the store and said they didn't have what he was looking for-still not sure why he is telling me all this. So I left to go to the soccer feild with my wife and kids, go by another store, there he is carrying a case of Beer out to his car. Almost a year later he still shows up to meetings and tries to "Act as if", I know I'm not living like that, I do have hope today, I truely hope he finds it.
