You are all amazing people

The quality of character on these boards are amazing.  I dont even feel the support from family and friends that i feel from some of you.  When i read some of the posts, its like you people truly care about eachother and thats so awesome.  Just remember, we ALL mess up.  EVERYONE.  But the fact that we are here just means we are well aware we made mistakes and need to change.  That alone is fantastic because there are MANY who dont ever even TRY to better themselves.  I believe that every single person who reads this post of mine can conquer whatever ails them.  I know this by the quality of person you have shown by supporting eachother.  Yes i am in a good mood, i just got done with one of my walks lol.

In my opinion, thats they key.  You have to be ready and only you know when you reach that point.  Luckily, in my case, i know that time is now.  This site and its members has really helped me get to that point.

Awhhhh,

nice sentimensts. For those who are new within the past few months and don't know me, I personally have no addiciton but am deeply touched by my father's crack addiction. I thinkthis site is wonderful and the amount of support for all of you from all of you is amazing at best. Many times with personal issues we have whether it is addiction, relationships, money, etc....it helps to know that you are not the only one who has made bad choices or fallen vicitm to horrible circumstances. Being able to see the effects of being human whether good or bad is truely humbeling to anyone and very special to those who seek whatever it is they are on this site for. B.S. or not it takes a real good person to come here and even if they are not able yet to be truely honest with themselves and face their personal demons and the consequences associated with them, they are good enough to lend an ear and a voice of inspiration to others......God bless all of you and those close to you. May all of you problems find their way to resolution.
