Good Morning,

I had so much on my goal list for camp, We are having a Pig Roast there is Holiday.

As I was preparing food for our journey, making pig in a blanket with mini Hot dogs and crescent rolls,

wrapped around them,

also was making Mac and cheese with ham in it.

Something come over me

StopBreath.listen

I poured a cuppa coffee, and looked for something to write on for I knew something was in stored or me. Even if it was a break from a busy mind. My daily goals are unfolding ,I have time to have a cuppa and listen to the wide chime outside, or the fan running, washer running ,to a deeper state of self. Relaxing taking a break.

This is different than the old Sharon, for I was always busy. This stroke I had took me on a journey of new awareness,

Of my limitations

Challenges

All new and different. Day by day. From once in a wheel chair to a walker a 4 prong cane, to a stick cane.

Wow surly new beginnings for me.

I used everything I learned in Alanon starting 30 years ago August 4th.I never finished school. Alanon was my school.

I have applied this program in many aspects of my life. This is my ESH, I have as working the 12th step. What ever jumps out at you in a share, I found worked for me is to pursue it. If it shakes my nerves I asked what is bothering me. Keeping the focus on me. For as we learn we can only control our selves. Have a safe and Happy Holiday, Love Sharon/angel123

Yes I also believe al anon has taught me what I could not learn at my parents (who were dysfunctional and abusive). I find great solace in al anon.

Aloha Sharon!!

Loved your share because of the similar experiences and responses that can
only describe a "searcher" for peace of mind and serenity.  Then....

my crazy imaginative side jumped into the meditation and ask, "I wonder what
kind of coffee that was?"  God will I ever be free?
