Hiya, Linda! Thanks for your presence here. I'm glad you're enjoying your day. May you have many more happy ones 1Day@aTime. I'm feeling much better of late. Sometimes I struggle with acceptance *Don't we All!* but today I feel alot calmer & surrendered. My temper has flared a few times this week & I've been learning alot about that & using the tools I'm learning in AA. Like if someone wrongs us & we are sore we are in the wrong also.. It's hard to look at myself like this but there is a certain freedom in knowing that I can change this even if it takes a few moments or awhile. I'm relieved it's progress & not perfection & between my 'flare~ups' the quality of my headspace is alot better so I'm not depressed today the way I used to be. Anger seems to be like a challenge of 'What am I going to do about this emotion now ~ What can I do with it' That takes some particular steering & it's new ways of thinking assertively for me without depending on ego for survival. Ego is exhausting! Anyway, thanks for asking. I hope you didn't mind my sharing in reply. I've joined my Monday morn BB study for my home~group now & have organised my availabilty at work to allow for this to which I'm grateful. Just for today tis onwards & upwards. I hope you're feeling joy in your recovery today too, Danielle x
