The steps have taught me a few lessons that have made a huge difference.
1. I am learning to stop taking everyone else's inventory and start taking my own. There is enough work to do on myself. 2. When I am wrong, I promptly admit it.
Trying to make all the relationships work is really about control and co-dependence. Thankfully, I have also learned that I am not as powerful as I thought. Those around me are glad I am learning these lessons as well.
It is that old image that what is inside our hoola-hoop is all that should concerns us. KINDEYES I have been guilty of the same behavior.
My son that is kinda trying to get his life in order has a difficult time voices his needs and emotions. Thank you for this reminder. If I am quick to jump in he won't have to grow or he will resent me.
I have learned a lot from my addict.
