A wonderful topic....
3A's---Awareness, Acceptance and Action
When I began in Al-Anon, my first instinct was...... "Help, something is wrong, I need to fix it quick".
I wanted to make things better before I even understood, just exactly what the problem was. I was constantly having to back up and try to undo many of my efforts.
Today I find that moving thru the 3 A's take time and it is a 3 step process. I become aware of a defect or problem, that is causing me discomfort. I accept the issue at hand and turn it over to my H.P. in prayer. As I do this, I begin to see what if any action I need to take. If I am not sure what that action should be, I probably need to wait. Meetings, more prayer and taking the time to be quiet and listen for the answer, usually brings me to the answer I need.
