Hate.......to..........Love
Permalink  
 


Was (for whatever reason) thinking about some of those AA slogans. I soon realized some that I used to just down right HATE, loathe, almost made me puke......

Then the light came on! idea I don't know when, but it did.





"Just for today." - I realllly didn't get that one, cause I am a "planner/projector."
"Grateful recovering......"- my original thought was who the hell could be grateful to be an alcoholic.
"Time takes time" - this gal wanted everything NOW. Still do some days, but they are fewer and farther between.



Yours?

This brings up "There's no such thing as coincidence." and "Don't overanalize everything." Well for this sick mind that meant "With coincidence non existent; overanalization is an impossibility.". However, that is what it took for God to make me focus on possibility. Now I've come to feel that analization is closer to concentration than focus. For me concentration is locked on to a target and focus is more akin to openness.
Thanks for reminding me to focus.idea
