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.
You don't have to move fast, just keep movin' forward.
This isn't from the alanon literature but I sure like it and wanted to share.
It reminds me that I can go at my own pace. I can grow and learn and make mistakes at my own pace. I don't have to rush myself anymore. Before Alanon, I thought I had to rush everything. Everything was a catastrophy and something was always falling apart...It was all just in my mind and I learned it growing up. I really think that the effects of alcohol made my system on hyper alert.
Today I am learning through the tools of Alanon that everything is fine. I know I have so much to learn and I will probably still create illusions in my head of everything going wrong but I also know that each day is getting a little better and I am making progress. No matter what happens. I can take the necessary steps to get through anything that comes my way and I have this program to thank for that.

Hmm, this is probably a very good lesson for me right now! Right now I feel in a rush to forgive, a rush to get this all over with, etc but I know that's it's not at all on my time. It's all up to my HP!
