Un-manageable !!!
Permalink  

My prayers are being answered, I assumed.

Work was getting thin while  credit cards calls and house bills were increasing.

So, in the NA way, I wrote about it and prayed.

And now whats happening is Im overwhelmed at job offers and am saying yes to all and getting myself more jammed up.

Im mean, this is like crazy; I was struggling because nothing much was happening with work and now theres so much I cant cope.....

Unmanageable all over again,,,, this time because of too much !!!

When it rains, it pours. Try to keep first things first.

Yeah,, first things first, always,, just for today...
Gosh,, its like the first thing Im deciding to, on a daily basis, for the next week at least ,,
is to be more responsible for my own recovery.

My immediate reactions are to blame people, places and things for my un-manageablity,
but I got to face my feelings and my problems.

And old boy "people-pleaser" is creeping up again, pretending to be my true voice,, but that self-deception is over.

I think this why FAITH is emphasised as an essential to a Serene Recovery,,
Thanks Dave,, will do.

Im amazed how quickly prayers are answered for this stupid addict.
Your right Ruthy,,, we got to be real caeful what we pray for and then also be careful what we do with the answer !!

Talking to God (or the True Self within) sure makes me looks clean and crazy but what the eck eh ???
That self-talk is giving me real confidence in facing my fears..

So Im practicing being a friend to my self everyday....
sort of self-embracing, self-appreciating self talk....

But,,, by God,, not self-sponsorship.....oh boy no... that dosent work...hehheh...
