Another Good Day with my A Brother...
Permalink  

Well... I have been taking the advise of many, Not so much advise but views and experiences.. Too which I am Very Grateful for... My younger Brother is an A, and as I have told before, I have been working on giving him his strength back.. Giving him things to be responsible for, well... A month ago, he wouldn't have called me, because I don't listen to his "Poor John" stories anymore, so he just didn't call me. he would call my other Sister, because she deals with it. And excepts it... Wellll......... Last Night... ON A SATURDAY NIGHT non the less. He called!!!! Didn't want nothing, Didn't have any "Bad News" He just called to talk to me and get my "Advise" on some up coming things he is thinking about taking on!!! Well I know this does not sould like much!!! but to me it is the world.... I have been waiting for "Little" break thru's like this to see a change in my brother, I don't know what I am more excited about, the fact that he called ME on a Saturday, "Talking Sense, and SOBER" OR, that he called and just wanted to talk... Since I have backed off and dropped the ball in his court, he & I are doing so much better.. I see a differance in myself and my baby steps "One Day At A Time" and I am slowly regaining a relationship with my brother that I have been hoping for... Thank you for helping me help him... I will asking my HP for the strength I need to keep things "On ME" and see were it leads... I now am kind of excited about the Journey instead of worring about what tomorrow brings...Love'n life today... Thanks for let'n me Share...
