Keep your balance

Sometimes, our legitimate needs and wants run amuck.

We want something so badly– for instance our spouse sobering up, or that job, or that woman or that man– that we begin to obsess and dwell. We take ourselves out of that place of balance and end up in a no-win tailspin.

It’s not that what we want and need is bad for us. It’s just that right now, what we want isn’t, obviously, taking place. Don’t take it out on yourself by judging yourself wrong. Don’t take it out on your needs by telling yourself you shouldn’t have any.

Relax. Come back to center, to that clear, balanced place.

Don’t let your needs and desires run away with you. Yes, passion is great stuff. Identify what you want. Then let it go. And ask God what your lesson is.

Today, I will come back to balance with any need or want that seems to be controlling my life. Instead of dwelling on it, I’ll give it to God and focus on taking care of myself.

Can remember making up my mind to take care of myself.  I went to meetings.  I left my place and went downtown.  I ate properly and I decided that I deserved a treat.  Well I found myself to havee very deserving and bought myself a few treat.  I forgot about balance until I realized that I was spoiling myself rotten.

I do deserve, but like most things, we need to keep our balance.  In relationships, as much as we would like things to be 50/50, it doesn't work out that way.  More often than not it is 60/40 or 30/70, when one person is down and not able to do, the partner takes up the slack.

Finding myself not caring. I know what to do but don't always do it. My bad . My God and I are working on this.
