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.
Our literature is really recovery treasure; a gift from HP and those who came before us. The difference between just waking up and "coming to" after reading our literature is awesome. If you haven't gotten into March 5th already...take the time, quiet slow time to read and absorb cause when included with the courage to change the change will be more pronounced. If you've yet to get the literature put it on your "to do" list today.
Sorry that it is copywrite protected or lots of us would be putting it on MIP. Have a good one...(((((hugs)))))
I agree jerry, I know my recovery has been enhanced by these daily readers, they have power in them. At my meeting tonight a member shared using a book called transforming loss, I think that was the title. Its an alanon book all qbout grief and she was talking about how we can feel as if we are slipping from time to time but its actually grief coming to the surface and we may need to work through grief for a long time as it only surfaces when we are able to feel it and face it. So grateful for this program and my friends in this fellowship.x
Transforming our Losses is a powerful read...it is a part of our library here at home. Of course if there is one thing we have been handed in this disease it is losses and grief because of it. (((((hugs)))))
Thank you Jerry. I am so blessed to have our CAL. It's been a very helpful tool in my recovery. Pg 214&215 in our book "as we understood" has a great prayer that I go to daily. It has helped me tremendously. Thanks again!
And it is the sad part of all this. Why we continue to endure these losses and grief is because we love so much. Only strength the the courage to make a difference in our lives can we keep going.
We keep prayer close and ask for help often.
(((( hugs ))))
