Now, you are working it, lu. The more meetings you attend with an open mind, the more you will see and the more you will be able to put the program into practice. Keep coming back and doing the most important things for you now - taking good care of you one day at a time.
The track you are on now sounds really good. Just keep working it. See if you can't find a local sponsor from the meeting you go to by you (I know it's a bit of a drive but still)...Having a sponsor to call and to work steps with made a HUGE difference for me.
I love to hear this! I remember when I first found al-anon and decided to stay single, I dove into my program and made it to at least 3 meetings a week. One of those meeting was with my sponsor and we slowly walked me through the steps with the book blueprint for progress I think it is called. I have never felt so much growth and things coming out of me. My awareness grew and I changed in that time from a caterpillar into my cocoon and slowly I have now emerged almost 4 years later into a butterfly. The sun has never felt so nice shining on my face as during that time learning to love me and to find my own worth. I now have a self esteem and back bone and am a take charge of my life kind of person. I got myself into school to follow through on my dreams. I am taking good care of myself and my children, no longer letting men or life make any decisions for me. I love feeling so free and independent! I am so glad you are diving into you and want you to know you are worth it and you will love the changes that come from discovering you! Sending you love and support on your journey!
