The material presented
here is not Al-Anon Conference Approved Literature. It is a method
to exchange
information, ideas, feelings, problems and solutions on a personal
level.
It is New Year even here and I'm thinking about what I do I want to see in next year.
I'd love to have a sense of sanity in my life; an organized method of producing art, food, sewing and other basic activities that build my world. I put these off so how can I develop a process? Included in these are digital products that hopefully support 12 steppers. Now that all is not Al-Anon. What is Al-Anon is the courage to change the things in my life that lead to sanity.
I think I can't make a process until I am doing the thing itself.
In my mind's eye, I see a bright shiny toolbox with all those wonderful tools that I receive from Al-Anon. I see reading CAL and handing my day over to my HP every morning. I can attend meetings, I can post or read here, I can work the steps ( kinda stuck on 5 which surprises me) and I can use the phone to ask for or give support. I have learned that active alcoholics are sick people who can heal in AA. I can watch my HALT and check for resentments (sneaky little boogers). I can do all sorts of service.
I DON'T NEED TO INVENT ANY OF THIS. that is so exiting.
