I need to hear it all again:
How I should not worry and be anxious about things I cannot control.
How I need to let go and let God.
How I can only control that which is inside me.

Tell me again all those good things from the Program.
I don't seem to be able to pull a single one up right now.

Just for Today

Just for today: I will try to live through this day only, and not tackle all my probems at once. I can do something for 12 hours that wiould appall me if I felt that I had to keep it up for a lifetime.

Just for today: I will adjust myself to what is, and not try to adjust everything to my own desires. I will take my "luck" as it comes, and fit myself to it.

Just for today: I will have a program. I may not follow it exactly, but I will have it. I will save myself from two pests: hurry and indecision.

Just for today: I will have a quiet half hour all by myself and relax. During this half hour, sometime, I will try to get a better persepective of my life.

Sending (((hugs))) and encouragement that you make it Just for Today!

Hugs! I recommend "language of letting go" with daily readings. By Melody Beattie.

Thank you. It's a tough, tough day today. I needed that.

I second this. I have been loving all the readings this last week. With the end of the year she has been talking about pulling it all together...even when the bad days are really bad.

Thinking of you.

Sending big bear hugs! You can get through this. Just remember to breathe.

This.

God, grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change
The courage to change the things I can
And the wisdom to know the difference. Amen.

Wash, rinse, repeat!

Positive thoughts and prayers for you today, lillamy!

Lillamy, I hope things are going better today. ((((hugs))))

One that always works for me.
Breathe, relax, smile. Sometimes smiles on the outside generate smiles on the inside.

Your friend,

lillamy

You guys are the best. Love you all!

Today is much better. I've spent the day in bed with my favorite TV-show and favorite food and let myself just do what I needed: Nothing. Disconnect. Zone out. Chat with friends over text messages.

Tonight (or, actually, tomorrow morning, if you want to get all technical), I have faith again -- that things will work out, and that I'm actually not doing anything except blow my adrenal glands to hell, by worrying.
