- Hello Ladies,I have been away for a few days attempting to gain some clarity, motivation, and peace. I have found some of each. I think I wrote in an earlier post that I had come to a decision to surrender my need to be in a relationship. But if I...
- Hello,I am not sure where everyone else is on this long and winding road to recovery because I am not even sure where I am in the journey. I am struggling between my wants, my beliefs, my deep desires, and my reality. I feel split off in several...
- Hello,I am rereading a New Earth for the hundredth time. Every time I read it I understand it more. I must admit that I have yet to become enlighten to the point that I want to be. I imagine that I will be like a Buddha-Christ. In the world but not...
- Doreann asked me to post my reading list so here it is. I listed only the books that have had a signicficant impact on me. The books that I have and still continue to read over and over again- each time getting deeper understanding. I also love to...
- Hello,I was praying last night and I told God that it is time that I move pass the pain. It is time that I look back on painful memories or look at my current painful situations with different eyes. I have no desire to be in denial but I also feel...
- Hello,I am the mother of one awesome nine year old little boy. I can honestly say that he is one of the driving forces in my life to stay in recovery. My greatest fear is that I will hurt him like my parents hurt me. Last night I called a friend...
- Hello,I read that phrase in a book by Gary Zukav (spelling?). He said that at some point we have to say yes but-now what. Meaning yes you learned bad behaviors in childhood, yes you have been hurt, yes you are a WWLTM-but now what. I am proud to say...
- Hello,I am reading Letters from WWLTM. It did not resonate with me as deeply as the Book- I am not sure why. It did give more insight into the author though. In this book she talks about why she left the counseling profession (to work on her own...
- Hello,I know that we have heard a million times that what a guy does is not about you- but rather it speaks for who he is. But how many of us really truly believe and understand that. I didn't for a very long time. I believed that what others did or...
- Hello, The guy that lives around the corner told me that he was interested in me what followed was a phone conversation, a couple of text, and talk on my porch in the middle of the night. What he did do for me is make me come running back to the...
- Hello,I spoke with an old friend today. We were friends since the third grade. She called me, which she only does when she wants to talk about her man. She was telling me that if only he would go to church her life would be better. If only he would...
- Hello,Did anyone else get to the part in the Book where she talks about just writing out everything and having one person that you really trust read it?Are you planning to do it? I have thought about it but I cannot think of one person I trust...
- Hello,I was at the pool yesterday and there were quite a few people there playing with balls and noodles. When it was time to go I notice that the life guard was going around collecting these items and putting them away. I notice that there were...
- Hello,It is hot here in the South. Yikes, I went out side to sweep off my porch and within minutes I was pouring down in sweat. The days here are beautiful but unbearable. I want to sit outside so badly but I cant take the sun for long. Such is life...
- Hello,I love a song by Alexander Ebert called Truth. My favorite lyrics are " the truth is that I haven't shook my shadow and everyday its trying to trick me into doing battle-calling out faker, want to get me rattled." Because the truth is I...
