Tomorrow I will be attending my second AlAnon convention, and my HP could not have brought it at a better time for me. Struggles in my mind and heart have left me confused and beat down the past three weeks, and trying to do the next right thing when I'm not certain what it is, is hard....Trying to do it with a broken heart is even harder. I'm worried sick about my mother who is struggling with my uncle's (her brother's) battle with spreading cancer, as her health is not the best either. Struggling with my son and his adolescense and being torn between being a man and a boy, as a single mom I'm not certain which was to go there either. And fighting Fibro and CFS syndrome at the same time. I''m grateul for the gifts in my life and blessed with a good job, warm bed and roof over my head...My life is blessed in many many ways, but my mind is so confused lately, I think from over load. My HP has given me so very much and I am grateful. Convention is all weekend and I am praying for guidance in His will for me and hope He leads me to the meetings that I need to be at to guide me in the next right step for me. Thank God for Alanon, for MIP, and my face to face family. I am blessed... and I'll keep coming back Shelly

Aloha Shelly...one next right thing might be to empty your mind on the kitchen table before leaving the house and going to the convention with an open one. I was taught that little behavior inside the rooms of the family groups long ago and it worked for me. A bit of imagination with help you get it done. Have a great convention... (((((hugs)))))
