May 28 2013: step five in mind… "Progress not perfect!" We were born perfectly imperfect… And then the world happened! And we have history, which creates the way we are in our attitudes and our behaviour. Step four is looking into the past and finding out what happened, so we can find a way forward. When we share the truth of who we are we cannot change the past and as is said somewhere, "we don't wish to shut the door on it," our life story is our own written or remembered self-help book/memories. We share, the good the bad and the ugly, and through expression we find relief…
Bank holiday Monday was fabulous. Phoning friends and family, practising some reflexology and providing a happy state of mind for my best friend. Then out to see friends, and whilst out, bumping into friends in fellowship and having a happy conversation. An ice cream, and six minutes on a sunbed because the weather has been awful these last few weeks… Just a little of what you fancy does you good? Just about, except for the obvious. In my case, as I stay sober one day at a time…
