slowly beginning to work


With all of the resources I've tapped into in the past year or so (Alanon only past few months) I'm starting to feel more grounded - more aware and am feeling some growth.  I know I have a loooong way to go and life will always be a place for growth but maybe it won't always be a struggle. :)

I've been turning things over to my higher power and the universe (such a foreign concept to me) and I'm actually seeing some "feedback"....  It may not be what I expected but it's not painful.  It is what it is and I'm gonna keep letting go more and more each day.  If not each day then in increments that I can stand.  I am an impatient person... I know that.  I get frustrated that I know in my head, logically, the direction or decisions I should go or make, but I have a problem with action and I have a problem with forgiving myself that my recovery/journey may not be at the pace at which I always think it should be.  But ya know what?  I'm doing it.   Who knows what tomorrow will bring but I know that today - I feel hopeful for feeling good.  I see some light.  I have a nice day planned with my daughter and I held my ground on things that I knew I needed to.

Love and hugs to you all!  Thank you HP for this day and whatever it may bring.

Amills,

Your post warms me.  I think no matter how difficult a situation there is, often we can find hope when we lean into our HP.   I can see the beauty of hope in your message and that is a gift to us all.

In support,

Tommye
