1. SEEDS OF FAITH
Faith, to be sure, is necessary, but faith alone can avail nothing. We can have faith, yet keep God out of our lives.-TWELVE STEPS AND TWELVE TRADITIONS, p. 34
2. When egos collide, use kind words, do what you have control over, and do what you think is right. Surrender what you don’t have control over, even if you think what others are doing is wrong. Others have the right to be wrong.
I define myself by what I do and how I do it, not by who wins. ~Pocket Sponsor
3. If I share my pain and shame I cut in half. If I don’t, I double it. – Anon.
4. I’ve learned that the more vulnerable I allow myself to be, the more in control of myself I really am. –Anonymous
Many of us feel that we can only show our strong, confident side.
While it is certainly good and often appropriate to be in control, calm, and strong, there is another side to all of us – that part of us that feels needy, becomes frightened, has doubts, and gets angry. That part of us that needs care, love, and reassurance those things will be okay. Expressing these needs makes us vulnerable and less than perfect, but this side needs our acceptance too. ~Language Of Letting Go
