Guest guest Posted October 2, 2006 Report Share Posted October 2, 2006 12 years is so fantastic. Carl was 20 years sober when he died and he never looked back to him it never existed which was part of his traditional teachings. I've now got to protect my kids from it which is why I would never move out to he Koori (aborigine) Mission where most of Carl's family live. They are all caught up in this vicious cycle of drugs and alcohol. The parents are still doing and I see my nieces and nephews who are only like 14 - 16 getting caught up smoking cigarettes and dope and drinking and having unsafe sex. Somewhere the cycle needs to be broken and I think a dry community would be fantastic. I alwasy thought I'd have Carl to protect the kids with his teachings and strength from it but now I have to do it. It is so sad to see how such poisonous substances affect and destroy so many lives. Hugs to you Tracey Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted October 3, 2006 Report Share Posted October 3, 2006 Thanks, Shari!! Never thought I'd make it at first. Getting the speed out of my system took a long time.
