I increasingly have a problem in sobriety just going slow, acting & speaking with care. I have a wonderful expanse of sober time in front of me, so why do I rush into actions too fast?
I've been a bit angry lately. Acquiring resentments left & right. Showing my fangs where they weren't wanted
Time to stop just admiring the concept of restraint of pen & tongue from afar, and practice it. Your examples eagerly looked for!
I've written at least six posts over the past seven days and then deleted them because I felt they were too caustic and were written more to prove I'm right rather than with the intention of being helpful.
I'm still working on not having the thoughts and emotions that compel me to write such posts, but that's going to take some time.
