Resentments
I choose repeatedly to swell to anger and hurt, I allow myself to mull it over, And over And over Though the act of pain is done, I am not finished with it. IT IS MINE AND I KEEP IT. But it is unhealthy, It keeps me sick I push God away with it. I must embrace Him, I will choose to allow Him the hurt, To give Him the pain, I will allow the ultimate surgeon to open the wound, For He will perform the healing. He will always give me life anew. As He cleansed the lepers He will cleanse me. He will make me new again, I will accept His gift of comfort, His peace! His Love, His serenity. For I will become willing to give it all to Him, To lock it away for His safe keeping, Not allowing IT to invade my very being, For I am His, And today He is mine IT no longer belongs to me, For I have let it go, So I may make the choice to GROW!!!

Nothing worse than an emotional hangover. For every minute you are angry, you lose sixty seconds of happiness. ~Author Unknown Get mad, then get over it. ~Colin Powell Before you give someone a piece of your mind, make sure you can get by with what is left. ~Author Unknown I don't have to attend every argument I'm invited to. ~Author Unknown Holding on to anger is like grasping a hot coal with the intent of throwing it at someone else; you are the one who gets burned. ~Buddha

Was talking to the lady who was my first sponsor. She has been in AA for 42 years.
She has Narcolepsy and has continuous seizures. She said it today and she said it when I was new, and I used that to help me stay in the moment
