FW: [Weekly Quote] Friends are God's apology for your relatives.
|
| |
. July 6, 2009 Quote of the Week "Friends are God's apology for your relatives." When I was new I had very few healthy boundaries, and I especially had little defense against the observations, suggestions, judgments and criticisms of my family members. Someone once said that your relatives know how to push your buttons because they were the ones that put them there. I quickly found out how true that was.... more »

The 4th

I facilitated my 9 am group on relapse prevention, sharing a tool which I helped create to do a daily moral inventory. I had a small but interested group. I will attach the form in case anyone wants to take a look. It is good for spotting trends. Data can be looked at for a whole month on one... more »

I hope everyone had an awesome 4th of July weekend filled with good sober times - BBQ's, a parade, a trip to the Jersey Shore, the pool, ice cream, and lots of outdoor playtime for my family. Unfortunately, my Father-in-Law goes for surgery today to repair his elbow he fractured when he fell last week. My wife is at the hospital with her brother and mother today -- I may need to take a day off work this week to bring him home. He will be fine - but prayers always welcome for anyone in the hospital.... more »

Life isn't about how to survive the storm, but how to dance in the rain! Love, hugs, and prayers, Vickie (913) 944-7004 Today's thought from Hazelden is: Reflection for the Day "When a man has reached a condition in which he believes that a thing must happen when he does not wish it, and that what he wishes to happen never will be, this is really the state called desperation," wrote Arthur Schopenhauer. The very real pain of emotional difficulties is sometimes very hard to take while we're trying to maintain sobriety. Yet we learn, in time, that overcoming such problems is the real test of the Program's way of living. Do I believe that adversity gives me more opportunity to grow than does comfort or success?... more »
