Try this for a definition of Crosstalking at a meeting. My Sunday version of AA by the bay is right off the Pacific Ocean and the water gets as close as about 30 feet. Today it was calm and glassy, warm and breezy and a great day to just jump up and enjoy it and so...the whales did. Yeppers it's the season and there was a pod of Blues breaching 60 yards off the shoreline. Try sharing when the majority of the attendees have run outside of the cabana to ooooh and aaaah with their cell cameras and such. It's a God thing and so when God speaks I stop and let go. Some oldtimers took exception and were nice about it and others later used the "disrespect" word and though it wasn't a biggie. We chose that spot 19 years ago and I helped co-found the meeting and we've had hundreds and hundreds of whale breaches and dolphin pod runs and the like. If we all were drunk and we all use to drink at the beach...the reaction would have been different. It's a gift...the meetings goes back to order when they silently slip below the surface of the ocean and pass on. Mahalo Akua...Thank you God for such beauty and grace whenever you present it. Keep them out of my bathtub!! (((hugs)))

Yepper's it is a God thing...I don't look while the meeting is going on because I can hear my former sponsor's caveat...don't do anything to get in the way between a man and the message. Don't know if he'll ever pass it on to the whales. LOL
