This was a good one for me. I read it last night and took a big breath.

I like to learn things and grow from them.
When i first accepted my life was unmanageable I understood that I had a need to change and grow. The problem was I was looking for a turbo boost to my growth process!
I had to get away from the thinking that all it took to grow was the knowing and the understanding what to do.
That understanding was an important step but its the PRACTICE that gets the growth for me.
Its slow and sometimes I shrink a little when I tumble into all my old patterns and thoughts, but I keep growing overall and I see it everyday in every relationship.
Learning patience, and accepting the set-backs are all a part of my growth.
Thanks again for these Ann,
Cathy
