It took me a long time to finally make the decision to open up my store.. I didn't want to go against the traditions..

One day, I was talking to someone in the program who told me an inspiring story..

He had purchased an AA pendant at one of the conventions he went to.. He said that some other members gave him grief about how this was an anonymous program..

Anyway, a couple of months later, he walked into a convenience store and was making his purchase.. The lady behind the counter saw the pendant around his neck and asked if he was in the program... He said yes, and she broke down crying.. She was new in the program and was having a hard time.. She wanted to go out and use..

Needless to say, they had a mini meeting right there, and he may have saved her life..

And that's why I opened up my store.. And thats why it's called "Carry The Message"
