filling tjhe hole

Hi all,

I came on here yesterday and again it has sparked an enlightenment in my recovery.

My a is sober and in AA and it a lot better today although he is running to work etc ( not working his recovery the way i want him to ha ha ).

I realised yesterday after reading on here that I am still wanting him to fill the hole I have inside.  That hole is smaller today thanks to recovery work, but some days it is bigger than others.  it is not his job to make me feel full loved, specail etc

I have moments when I feel full when I feel ,hole ENOUGH!!

they are always when I conect woth my HP, he loves me , AS I AM!!!

No matter what i look like, or how I behave.  My partner is only human he has his own struggles it is not fair for me to expect him to fill the hole inside me when he is trying to fill his own whole.

 

Looks like I need to meditate, pray more, connect more.(step 11)

I am loveable I just need you all to remind me sometimes ha ha

 

hugs Tracy

Great share Tracy. I also struggle some days to remember that my husband is only human. We all are! Progress not perfection, right?

Yes HP is the only one who can fill that hole.  You are right it is an inside job.  I too found that each day I must take the time for :

Prayer, Meetings, Meditation and Gratitude lists  and my  defeacts lifts.  I find I am then filled with the Courage, Serenity and Wisdom of my HP
