Sometimes I think it is important to remember what we have in common - that we have all shared life with an alcoholic/addict. While it's nice to hear I may get an amends from AH when and IF he ever chooses sobriety, it is not a given. All alcoholics, recovering or not, are not the same. It's another example of why my recovery has to be about me.
I also tend to agree with my therapist on this one - amends are more for the person giving them than those receiving them. If and when that day ever comes, I'll be grateful for his sake that AH has found sobriety, but I can't imagine it meaning more than that to me by then.
JMHO.
