Life is difficult. The timing of this was perfect for me coming out of a few days of darkness, and happy to report that despite the dark mood, the monster was nowhere to be found. My new motto: Don’t resist it; just feel it!
Just as with the need to change the language around this challenge to make it work for me, if I change the way I see my challenges as simply part of life itself, they are no longer so difficult.
Look at it this way: Challenges are not burdens, they’re stepping stones.
Have a wonderful day!
Love this one Heidi! Been struggling with missing the illusion that alcohol could make life better. Eve. Though I know it doesn’t, I do miss the tone I believed it did. There was at least some hope I’m that moment (albeit false). So now I’m left with figuring out how to cope with what I believe is a very stressful, demanding life without the false hope. Haven’t figured it out yet, but saw this post on FB today that reminded me of you and the Tolle reference….”What screws us up most in life is the picture in our head of how it’s supposed to be.” XXX OOO
Sorry about the typos. Hope you can read. 🙂
