Accepting things we cannot change is difficult, but only because most of us have been in denial for so many years and been trying to manipulate others to get what we want. Sobriety is a great gift you can show your brother, and when the day comes when he needs help, I am sure you'll be there. That's all you can do. thanks for the post.

That’s all you can do.

Today many years later and many years away from alcohol still have problems accepting thing that suck that I cannot changed. Right now my dog who I love more than most people would understand is showing signs of old age and decreptiness and it is very hard to just say to myself well nothing I can do so I will just have to accept it. One thing I learned and learned well is words and talk are very cheap, saying and doing are worlds apart and it is not so easy to really do the things we say we need to do. I cannot even offer how it can be done, but if we want to have some peace I suppose we need to learn it and do it no matter how long it takes, or we will never have any peace.
