The material presented
here is not Al-Anon Conference Approved Literature. It is a method
to exchange
information, ideas, feelings, problems and solutions on a personal
level.
It's hard for me to keep the focus on me and not react ot my AA/Dr. and her homeless ness, I'm praying for God to remove this pain from my broken heart, I know He will because He's done it before. I've been to 2 f/f meetings this week. The key for me is to stay busy and take care of myself. When I allow myself to think/focus on her issues/situation, the pain is as bad or worst then when I lost my husband. In today's reminder from courage to change, one sentence say to consider the possibility that everything is happening exactly as it should.
Hugs hugs hugs :) Keep up the good work and know there really is a light at the end of the tunnel, you see what hurts and what doesn't more importantly you know you don't want to be there. Woot woot that is about 90% of the battle for me. :) At the end of a rough day I do my best impersonation of Scarlet O'Hara say, "Tomorrow is another day!" I follow that with "And I'd like to thank the academy." :)

Our topic at our meeting yesterday was, "live and let live". When you get busy living, you don't have time or energy to worry and obsess about what someone else is doing. We can then just let them live.
