Good Afternoon to all: What a wonderful and enlighting couple of f to f meetings I have attended in the last month. Last night we talked about Facing Reality---WOW---very powerful. Everyone took a turn and read out of How AL-Alon Works, new book and love it. When it came to me I read
That it isn't easy to see the suffering of our loved ones or to admit even to ourselves that a close relative has abused us or to come to grips with the fact that the people we have turned to for love and acknowledgement are incapable of giving it, or to recognize that we ourselves have become narrow-minded, vindictive, pessimistic, submissive, fearful, despondent, petty, shrewish, nagging , controlling, or over bearing. We may be dismayed to find that the negative thinking and behavior that we developed to protect us from the painful experiences of our lives have in fact seeped into every corner of our world.
Being more aware of what I am saying to my A and how I feel about the situation has helped me to stay on course with giving my A's respect and understanding of this disease. Eveyone needs to continue to detact with Love. I think I have finally got it and I need to continue to post and go to weekly f to f meetings. For today I have never been more at peace with my situation. God Bless to all
