You are such an amazing, kind and loving human being. Thank you for sharing your many gifts and family stories. Your voice is a bridge connecting the listener to heart-centered healing of old wounds, and your song’s lyrics teach us to face our pain and to move toward feeling self love, forgiveness, empathy, and self-care. The songs you create are heartbreaking, joyful and resilient in emotional truth. Deep gratitude to you Brandie Carlile for sharing your family stories. In the 1960’s as the eldest of six siblings, that I took to Alonon to try to combat the damage of parental and ancestral alcoholism; the reality that I had to accept is: Each person’s journey is always a personal choice in taking that road to recovery. ❤️🩹I’m so glad you and your Dad fish together.💕💟☮️
The experience of living in an alcoholic home is life altering. After years of Alanon, I am still struggling with the repercussions. Worst of all is the alcoholic still denies what his drinking put me and his kids through.
I think it's great that your Dad doesn't feel bad about it -- he was sick. He didn't mean to hurt you -- he just couldn't have a relationship with people because his relationship was with the alcohol. He hurt himself and others were collateral damage. To dwell on it isn't helpful.
I don’t think she’s dwelling. I think she wrote the song and moved past it, but I think it’s really cool that she told us the story of how she felt. He was like a boy whistling in the wind.
Most Alcolholics Don't Have PANY RECALL OF IT, I grew up the same way, FORGIVENESS IS KEY, because hanging on to old shirt, can cause a number of Dis- eases inside you, by Not letting go
I understand my mother was an alcoholic, but sadly after she passed away, I found out what led her to become an alcoholic at the age of 7 to 14. She was brutally violently raped by her father. She was never the same. She became an alcoholic, then became an agoraphobic and I never knew until after she passed so I understand this song completely. 😢
This song evokes such memories if growing up. It's a beautiful song and i love both Linda Ronstandt and Brandi Carlile ❤
This song……is kind of my version of Amazing Grace. It’s transcendent ❤
Beautiful, Brandi! The twins harmony is 🔥. Similar childhood here. Thanks for being you.

I hope you find the healing you deserve. Al-anon is a gift in my life and has been for many years. Prayers and hugs... One friggin' day at a time!
I understand this, 25 years experience. I still have nightmares, but thankfully, I'm safe and happy currently. Life is good 💯

Healing is a lifelong process. Al-anon and 12 step programs bring healing.

The Brothers harmony....is god

That's very sad. :( Why it's important to resist judgement on those that suffer from alcoholism.
@@stephaniehickshomon absolutely agree!
