Hi everyone, hope you all enjoying the holidays. I had a lovely day yesterday and it is my birthday today not feeling very well but I am still feeling very happy.
I am currently working on the middle steps 4,5,6,7 and looking in the mirror i quite hard. My hp is bring awareness to me moment to moment. I know i need to become uncomfortable with behaviours before I am willing to ask for them to be removed, but I do not find this a nice place to be. An old timer in my meeting on Friday night said I will come out the other side and gave me encouragment. I can see other people growing who are a little ahead of me but patience is not a strong point with me. I know I am a good person at heart, I also know I want to do this more than anything but sometimes i get overwhelmed by all the changes I know I need to make. I have beenasking Hp to take away the shortcomings he thinks need to be removed. I am becoming more and more aware that i need to rely on him rather than getting frustrated with myself when i repaet a behaviou I want to change.
on a nice not My newly sober ABf bought me a lovely bangle for xmas with the serenity prayer on it It did not cost the earth but the though and love with which it was given it is one of the best presents I have ever recievd I will cherish it.
wishing you all happiness in 2011 and the courage to change the things you can.
Also in support Tracy...The confusion and angst are temporary as you practice and learn. Do not cause undo trouble for Tracy especially when HP is there to help her grow and get to know herself and don't get in the way of her sponsor either. The consequence of your dedicated work you cannot imagine. I wanna be here when the miracle falls in your lap and settles in your spirit. You go girl...(((((hugs)))))
