Won't go to a meeting til noon today but last night's topic was on expectations and how placing expectations on people, places and things is basically a premeditated resentment. We talked about how we are powerless over people, places and things and how trying to run the show and "expecting" people to "perform" to our standards just makes for trouble. It wound back around to step 3 and how we are not in control when we turn our will and our lives over to a HP. The shortened version of steps 1,2, and 3 was shared in context to this.
1. I can't
2. HP can
3. I think I'll let him.
Meeting night before last was on fear and then wound around to anger which we realize are intertwined. Most anger is based on fear (either that we're going to lose something we think is ours or gain something we don't want!).
I'll come back this afternoon and share the topic of today's meeting.
Hugs,
Kellye
