Post Finale

Jeff,

I think you're one of the good guys in the world. So forgive me if this post comes off as self-righteous or cliche - neither are intended.

You've got a wound Jeff. And when you've got a wound, you have to clean the wound, dress it, care for it, protect against infection, have it checked from time to time.

But you've got to do something about it.

I've done my share of drinking Jeff. I'm certainly not anti-alcohol. But I know this about it - it's not a healing agent. It's nothing more than anesthetic. Numbs the pain, makes it not feel so bad for awhile. It doesn't do a blessed thing to heal the wound.

I'm not in any way telling you it's time to be done with the pain. It's YOUR pain, and it will fade in YOUR time. We all have our own unique tolerances for pain.

I'm just saying it's time to start doing some healing Jeff.

Yeah, it sucks, all of it.

So maybe it's time to find something in your life that doesn't suck. Something that doesn't suck AND allows some healing to take place would be perfect.

There is too much good in you to allow it to sit in the easy chair each night in an anesthetized state.

We don't need to be on the bottom to begin working our way back up. Start where you are. Work your way up from there.

Sorry if this is coming across too much like "pull yourself up by the bootstraps." Again, not my intention.

I care about you. And I hate seeing you still down and out.



Blessings,

Bill
