So...today has been an OK day..I actually put Step 1 into practice last night before I went to bed and this morning I got the opportunity to use it again. I felt so much freer because I was able to do that. Then I realized something. In using Step 1, I am making myself vulnerable. Well, sort of anyway. I mean if I truly give any situation up to the care of my HP and I believe that my HP has my back then I am in no safer place but on the other hand if I let go of the outcome of a situation then I make myself vulnerable to other peoples reactions. People, you know, humans. Those beings who aren't perfect. A little while ago a slogan came to mind. "Expectations are just premeditated resentments". It was at that point that I knew I needed to get this out of my head. LOL I mean, clearly, it's counterproductive to have expectations of life going the way I want it to. Most likely, I would get bored. So, this is me, taking my hands off the "I want what I want when I want it" button..Later.....
