     about these ACT posters I'd seen up. She said 
     
     ‘Hey, right, there's an ACT coming up.’ And she 
     
     «started telling me about this ACT weekend she

     was on last year. She said it's basically a bunch 
     
    

    
     of kids getting together for a weekend to do some 
     
     listening and talking with each other. No booze,to 
     
     hide behind. She said it's a weekend away with your— 
     
     self. But you know what struck me? The whole time 
     
     she was talking about it, the girl half—forgot she 
     
    
   
   
    
     was talking tomeJ She wasn't even trying to con—' 
     
     Vince me to go. She was Just doing a little talk— 
     
     ingland a lotta smiling and thinking back. That's 
     
     what got me thinking this ACT might be a better 
     
     way to spend a weekend than sitting around some 
     
     swizzle—stick heaven. 
     
    
   
   
    
     Paul/ But I thought the ACT weekend was all about God. 
     
    

    
     Greg/ That's what I asked too. The girl said God was 
     
     the centre of the whole thing. And the way she ‘ 
     
    

    
     .-said that....that's when I decided to go. 
     
    

    
     Paul/ Is that all she said about the God part of it? 
     
    

    
     Greg/ No- I think the last thing she said had something 
     
     to do with the God part. I asked her what the 
     
     main thing she got out of the weekend was. She 
     
     that during ACT, she found out that the part of 
     
     her she'd always felt was missing, didn't have 
     
     to be. And you know that word ‘joy’? When she I 
     
     said ‘joy’ you could feel the word. 
     
    

    
     Paul/ You don't really think this ACT weekend is gonna 
     
     be that great, do you? 
     
    

    
     Greg/ I kinda think it will be.
