Empowered/Powerless - Monday's Chip

[caressa]

When I surrendered and admitted my powerless I was empowered, one day at a time to stay sober. When I remember to ask for help in the morning and give thanks at night, I stay clean and sober, one day at a time.

Tonight was my anniversary celebration and I had to surrender to my pain and the weather and spend a lot of my day in my bed in order to make it to my anniversary. As a result of listening to my body, and doing what I needed to do, I was able to go, enjoy myself and walked away feeling very healed and blessed.

congrats on your aniversary! You did not say how many years it was, but WAY TO GO!!!!

It seems to me when I admit I am powerless over other people, places and things, it actually empowers me. It gives me the power to make new choices. It empowers me to change. It empowers me to have different actions and reactions. It empowers me tofind my own peace, serenity and happiness regardless of what may be going on around me.

I'm always gonna find things in my life that I am powerless over.

So I am both on this chip. To me it is a wiin-win.
