waiting


The topic at my meeting this morning was waiting.  Everyone had a different perspective on this topic however we all identified with waiting for the drinker to get sober, better on a programme, to work it to change their behavior.

However today I realise that life is short I am focusing hard on my recovery the thing I do have control over.  Its hard enough traveling my own spiritual journey building contections with Hp, attending meetings working my programme, service working running a home rearing two children.  My abf will get back on his programme if he chosses its nothing to do with me.  I had dreams that if I worked hard enough waitied proved my love he would get better but it seems to be 10 steps forward the so many back.  I just want to focus on me my life recovery I am tired of waiting others have choices and I can not control them I just have to make the correct choices for myself so that i live a happy healthy life.

 

hope this makes sense
