Trying to detach

[Zues126]

Head up- one bit of advice. Before sending ANY text/email or initiating a conversation. WAIT. Pray for strength if you pray. If not ask yourself- am I feeling hurt/needy/angry/depressed right now? Or am I feeling detached/confident/strong? Only then start typing- and before you hit send proof read and ask yoursf if you think that tone came through!

We all backslide as long as we are 'acting' our growth. I agree you have to fake it till you make it, but there will be moments when our heart shines through and will be revealed. Either due to a backslide or being tested.

So make your future communications DB approved and focus on the SOURCE of the backslide. The attachment, the negative emotions. What can you do to grow into the person you're trying to act like?

On my end I'm really starting to realize the R is over and that constantly reevaluating the chances of it coming back again will destroy my own growth and any chance there is in the process. Will I be ok on my own? Am I focused on what I'm greatf for? Am I learning the lessons life is teaching me?

For me and you it may be too late for the R, or it may not be. But it's NEVER too late to start growing up and living the way God intends us to, strong, humble, and grateful for what we have. Anyone that has Internet connection in this world is so far ahead of the historic standards if living, if we can't find peace in what we have a dysfunctional R won't fulfill us.

Rooting for you!
