Doing nothing....

is sometimes the best solution. Great advice I received yesterday that I shall carry into today. Peace, may your God hold you through out this day.

Yea nice post, thanks. Sometimes I feel like such a waste, but it's a part of life. And of course doing nothing sober is healthier and cheaper than doing it drunk/high.

Yes, for sure.

I was someone who tried to control the outcome of anything and everything, so learning to do nothing and wait and see what happened was hard to do.

We use a similar thing at work: sometimes the best decision is not to decide.

THANK YOU, that was exactly what I needed to hear today.

I have a relationship issue that I was just ITCHING to bring up to the other person today. But it's not the right time, and I would have been overly emotional and probably said the wrong thing. The answer right now is to do nothing, at least for another few days.

Thanks for the reminder.
