how important is it? message


This morning I was reading, and a little quote caught my eye.  I'd like to share with you.


"If you get this upset when you burn the toast, how will you feel when the house burns down?"


It just got me thinking of how I react somedays when a little something goes wrong.  Maybe next time I'll save my "upset" thoughts for a major problem.


Y'all have a good day...I'm just kinda pacing myself today.  Trying to keep my spirits up and the focus on my recovery. 


(((((to all))))))  G

Wondeful reading!  It reminds me not to SWEAT THE SML STUFF.  I have learned in alanon to let go of the small things like buring the toast. I have learned to detach from a small problem or deal with it calmly. I often have a plan B to get me thru. But then when a larger problem comes along ,. I am bettter able to handle it.
