Hi Scrap, I moved to Florida after my first year of sobriety. There was a fantastic meeting on Friday nights with lots of "young" people. After a year or so a bunch of "thumpers" and other folks who loved to hear themselves talk started coming and totally changed the vibe. It motivated me to start a beach meeting. Well we just celebrated 30 years of our meeting. If you ever get to the treasure coast look us up. life's a beach - 8:45 am on Sunday.
- scrapcode 4y agoI certainly will - thank you! This meeting was pretty relaxed and certainly not of the "thumper" category, but it just... hard to explain, but, wasn't for me. I may expand my horizons and try a couple of different places out but almost every meeting I've attended I got the vibe that 90% of them were there just to "hear themselves talk" or collect another few witty quotes to add to their repertoire. Not that there is anything wrong with that, just gets old and didn't feel beneficial to me over spending that time doing an intensely physical and mentally stimulating activity like BJJ.
