Saturday's Chip: RELAXED/ DEFENSIVE « Thread Started on Nov 7, 2009, 9:38am »
RELAXED -or- DEFENSIVE
I am generally in a very relaxed state of mind, if I get any more relaxed I'd have to be unconscious. I think the saying "don't sweat the small stuff" has helped me by great measure.
“Your mind will answer most questions if you learn to relax and wait for the answer.” - - William S. Burroughs
When I am keyed up and feeling defensive, it takes time to reason things out. I depend on prayer, as I know God always has the answer for me! I have learned to relax and wait for His answer, it's not always the same as mine...
There are times when I have to take defensive measures, I can do this by setting boudaries. My recovery comes first, and I am willing to defend my serenity....

Not sure if relaxed is the right word although I wasn't being defensive today. My son tried to get into the detox last night but there were no beds. He called again this morning and there were none available. He just left to go to sign himself in. He is not sure if they will take him. I pray that they will.
I wasn't too relaxed because I haven't been to sleep today.
