Help...I'm Disturbed
As you may know, I'm still rather new here. A little over tw weeks. I'm doing well.
But I read today that two of our esteemed members fell hard. Don't need to mention "names." My heart is with them. I ache for them. They and their words are a source of inspiration to me.
Their pain hurts me!. Bloody hell.
I ask the "old timers" with a year or more. Could we have seen it? Could we have helped more? I saw little indication.
Is there anything beyond the obvious show of love and support that we can do now? I guess I'm not "jaded" enough. This hurts, it casts a pall on my own recovery. They are models to me. Note that I haven't said they "were" anything, because I fully expect them to get up and keep on keepin' on, a little wiser, a little stronger.
I'd love to read a meeting of the sober minds here. For us who are new and perhaps overly confident. I sure try not to be. I know it's dangerous.
I am very disturbed and my heart goes out. And I just needed to get that out. I hope I can be a model to someone someday.
