I did that too over and over until I surrendered and waved the white flag.

It FINALLY hit me that I could not control my drinking so………I stopped trying.

And that is pretty much how I look at most things these days. I can’t control him, her, them, you…So I stopped trying.

It really is a free feeling not having to put myself into everything. If I just stay out of it, it does take care of itself and no matter how it turns out, that is how it was supposed to be. I don't need to get my greedy little hands into everything.

I still have my moments, I want what I want at times, but it is better today then it was and I can accept the outcome a better today as well.
