I didn't think I could do much of anything, but I am coming to realize a lot of things about myself and that is I really don't know too much about my true self,if that makes any sense.I am in school and making straight A's in all classes,Don't get me wrong,I am not bragging,I am completely and utterly amazed.I realize that for most of my life I have felt like a helpless little child who just wasn't capable of much.I was expecting C's,yeah I would probably just pass but I wouldn't excel,see that is my thinking!I might be somebody after all.I might have talents I haven't even tapped into and that is exciting.I also am becoming aware of how many times a day I call myself stupid,I really need to stop that.
Good work Mary That is the reason that alanon offers us the Steps and tools so that we keep the focus on ourselves, and discover the intelligent, compassionate, resourceful , kind, wise person that you truly are. I am glad that you took the action and let go of the results The results are fantastic.
I love this aspect of the program, I am finding the very same thing in many very surprising ways!!
Go you!!!!

Congratulations on your "A," Mary! And I know you didn't have an easy time of it getting back and forth to class to listen, prepare and then to later take the test on wintry roads. Double congratulations on doing the next right thing even when you might have thought about staying home. That sounds like adult decisions to me.
