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.
All I can do, is focus on me, control me & change me. Sad for this to be so difficult & guilt laden for us but it still takes me some work & hard focus some days, to just allow myself to consider my wants, needs & desires. It gets easier with practise, just like forgiveness.
I had to forgive myself b4 I could forgive others. Had to forgive me for loving others compulsively & neglecting myself. I am human & entitled to pursue happiness & serenity, I do not deserve to be abused or neglected. None of us do!
We all deserve to be respected, to value ourselves, recognize our divine light & be happy, serene & free.
Letting go of kicking myself was tough too.
I wake up each day now & leap out of bed smiling, thanking God I'm still here & surrenderring my will to HP's. I give everything to God ~ willingly & freely offering it up as a sacrifice I surrender my anger, hurt, pain, physical ills, other people, you name it, I surrender it!
This is how I stay in the now & focus on me, thank You God for never leaving me & showing me that I am worth my own good/pure love.
Getting better & better, one day at a time, -Kitty of Light
