The Language of Letting Go, Feb. 4
FEBRUARY 4
You are reading from the book "The Language of Letting Go."
Enjoying Recovery
What a journey!
This process of growth and change takes us along an ever-changing road. Sometimes the way is hard and craggy. Sometimes we climb mountains. Sometimes we slide down the other side on a toboggan.
Sometimes we rest.
Sometimes we grope through the darkness. Sometimes we're blinded by sunlight.
At times many may walk with us on the road; sometimes we feel nearly alone.
Ever changing, always interesting, always leading someplace better, someplace good.
What a journey!
Today, Higher Power, help me relax and enjoy the scenery. Help me know I'm right where I need to be on my journey.

I feel like it's really accurate also--sometimes I feel I'm borne on the wings of eagles, other times I seem to be slogging thru knee-deep mud w/snowshoes on.
Sometimes I see things w/astounding clarity, compassion and understanding. Other times my head is firmly up my hind end and I act like a wolverine w/PMS.
Part of it is accepting that this is just how it is for me on any given day. Part of it is accepting that it's exactly the same way for others on any given day.
And we're all moving forward, the best we can, right?
