Walk Softly and Carry a Big Book:
Real change requires real change.
This could have been posted anywhere, but my thoughts were on my adult child. The adult self having to give the child a good talking too.
It reminded me of one of SG's favorite saying's "If nothing changes, nothing changes." I think we all like that one.
Wonders of wonders, thanks to my new medication, I am getting some sleep. I still have 30 hour days, but the 8-11 hours sleep seem to balance it out.
My body doesn't know what to do. It hasn't had the energy to do anything. It hasn't had the exercise, to keep up with my thoughts. It is a long time since I went with so little pain, there is still pain, just not as severe and constant. I think a lot of it is my fibromyalgia flaring up and yet one of the new medications is suppose to help fibro. It is suppose to help depression too, but my depression has never been this bad before.
So like I have had to do in the past, practice these principles in all my affairs. The 12 Steps are applicable to all things, especially things that need change, be it mental, emotional, spiritual or physical.
My body is having to adjust. I find myself saying, 'You can do that. There is no one to say no." You are your own person. You are not alone, your Higher Power is with you. What He leads you to, He will see you through.
