I heard this for the first time in my meeting last week, loved it, and wanted to share with all of you:

Y - You

A - Always

H - Have

O - Other

O - Options

Are you stuck on a dilemma?  What other options do you have?

Thank you for sharing a positive tool, Freetime, always appreciated! AlAnon reminds me that I have a choice when faced with a challenging situation: focus on the things I don't like or that I can not change, or find a way to change my mindset or circumstances to maintain my peace.

AlAnon doesn't take away the challenges in my life, but it does give me the tools to change my perspective and not suffer. So grateful for the wisdom of the program
