Hello everyone, I am doing a workshop later on this year in which we will be making God Boxes. Would you please share your favorite slogan or saying you have heard in meetings that I might print out for use on the boxes. Thanks Barb

Everything I have ever let go of has claw marks all over it.
This is a good topic. I have a few. The two most favorite ones for myself is "Let it Begin with me" and "One Day at a Time" Before finding Al anon I was always consumed with my A's life and not mine. I thought I had everything under control. I am the type of person that would always think ahead and not concentrate on the day that I am on. It was always what if's and so on. I saw myself planning for the future or at least thinking about it, instead of just focussing on the moment, hour, or day.
Since finding Alanon I am learning to put me first and focussing on the day, One Day at a Time. I don't worry about tomorrow, or next week or evan next month like I use to. There are so many other slogans that I can comment on but these two I work on every day. It helps me remember that I am not God and that I have to turn my life over to him as I undrstand him and things will become easier as time heals.
Good luck in your workshop. I hope it is successsful
The one that gets me thru most situations is This too Shall Pass I know that what ever it is ,how bad or good it is that I will never go thru the same thing , with the same people at the same time again .
