Acceptance - My next challenge.

[2chiquitos]

Hi Arsene,
Todays topic in Al Anon was acceptance. **sigh**

I shared something I think would help.
I recently started gardening, well more like pulling the weeds cuz I don't plant anything! lol! My father told me to use the back of the hammer to pull them out quicker. I did and they quickly grew back. I learned from my mom to water before weeding. This way you pull them out from the roots.

I later learned that the slower you pull them out the better you'll get at pulling out the entire root.

I apply this to my sitch. I've been trying to detach quickly to escape from the pain. Instead I unmasked the anger and GOD was it painful! Slowly I worked at detaching.

I am not 100% but I feel so much more serenity now than ever before.

Every day is better
