Pocket Sponsor - Book - Quote
Some days you will be shocked at how nasty and short tempered you are. You'll think, 'This can't be me being so unreasonable.' Yet it is. You may deny it's really you by jostling the blame on another, 'If they hadn't.... No, your bad behavior is your fault. You have no excuse. Now, can you love you anyway?
I learn to love me even when I don't like me.
This reminds me that my sponsor told me that I needed to be my own best friend's.
The people in the program loved back to good health. The good thinking isn't always there some days, but when it isn't, I try to turn it over to my Higher Power. Some days I like to sit in my stuff, but most times, I try to do something to change my energy to something better.
I know my body language often gives me away. I was told the first time at the age of 14 that I talk with my eyes. Now I am using my fingers. The unfortunate part is when I use my tongue and give myself a good talking to and tell myself to smarten up.
I don't like making mistakes. It is okay to make them, and I accepted that, yet I don't have to like it in order to accept.

This reminds me that if I make a mistake, I am not one.

Sometimes we can find ourselves back in the darkness. That is when we have to bring things to light, by doing either a 4th or 10th Step
