I was wondering while having breakfast and reading the Al-Anon monthly FORUM magazine how many of the MIP Fellowship also have this tool within arms reach. Like MIP the shares come from all over the world and for me are often right on regarding recovery. Does your meetings have copies and do your groups discuss the subject matter? I love listening to the voices in print and will take these stories out and about with me as I head into the neighborhood. I believe the annual subscription is 11 bucks including shipping and this months copy featues a offering "How to clear a path in the woods - and in life". Did I like it? I clear paths for a living. Keep coming back (((((hugs)))))
Yes, I get it because I am the meeting rep and I get it mailed to me to bring to the group. We have a bunch of them at our meetings and we use them like a lending library. They are great when going on vacation and I need a small magazine for my purse. Then after the vacation I bring it back to the group and get a new one for the next vacation.
My group get's it, but I honestly haven't looked at it too closely. It's not marketed at our group, so maybe based on your share I will have to take a look at it.
I'm all about great shares so if you like it, I am sure I would too...
Thanks for the post Jerry - sounds like another marvelous tool for the box.
