                                              ANGEL THOUGHTS

" yawn Serenity is.......

To walk when others are running.

To whisper when others are shouting.

To sleep when others are restless.

To smile when others are angry.

To pause when others are hurrying.

To pray when others are doubting.

To think when others are in confusion.

To face turmoil yet have composure.

To have inner calm inspite of everything.

To sleep in the middle of a storm.

This is the test of serenity.

This is the Christ LIfe."

awwawwawwawwawwawwawwawwawwaww

Hope this inspires and validates that the program works if we work it!!

If we are not working recovery, we are working relapse!!

Love to all,
NANUKE

Nanuke,

I have really enjoyed this and your post about the relaxed approach.  Anxiety is common and these calm me just like the serenity prayer does.

Are you the author of Angel Thoughts?  If so, beautiful thoughts, well done!
I pause at the two lines that say sleep because I often sleep for avoidance which I am trying to change as I am up all night if I sleep too much.  I might change the word to say breathe or meditate instead so I stay out of that sleep zone too much.  (-:

Thanks and hugs from ddub
