I like myself. I really like saying these words. I like myself. Right where I am, and the direction I'm moving in. Life is rapidly changing in good ways. 1. Mental strength. 2. Emotional stability. 3. Physically relaxed and at ease. #lifeisgood #lawofattraction |
I like you too Mango ;) Keep doing what you're doing. You sound great! |
Thank you! This is a new, really good feeling. Kboys, I like you too! :) |
I like you, Mango.:scoregood |
Good for you! It's a big thing to be able to say that! We all like you too Mango! |
dandylion & hopeful, thank you! I like you, too. :) This feels really good. Somehow, as these things sometimes happen, having this beautiful thread opened up things inside me to gently and easily release some tears and an awareness of guilt. Guilt that you didn’t do enough. This is where you feel you could have done more for someone and are now beating yourself up about it. I am enough. I did not cause the abuse in my life. I allow healing, goodness and playfulness to transform this moment into one of full acceptance of myself. For all of us: https://i.imgur.com/46F6WJQ.jpg |
Mango, a lovely positive post. Sometimes its very hard to like ourselves. But when we are able to see our self worth, despite other peoples behaviour to us, it is good. The opinions of others do not define who WE are. They choose to be who they want to be...and WE choose to be who we want to be. You sound like you are doing great at this! 💗 |
Thank you, Awal! :) This morning in meditation I revisited awareness of my inner child having deep healing going on. Yesterday during yoga I had the intent of "playtime". Today I'm going to paint, letting the kid in me have fun with colors and an unfamiliar medium of expression. Deep breathing and easier meditations are allowing clarity, in good timing. |

Prayer. Meditation. One day at a time. In meditation this morning I felt a release from the baptism I received as a young child. An energetic connection to my past has been cut. Allowing a gentle guidance by God/Higher Power. This day starts fresh. New. #thankyougod #lifeisgood |
At Al-anon today I received the gifts of clarity, fellowship, awareness and being a part of something greater than myself. My Higher Power has been guiding me other places lately and it's good to be on my own path. In both places I see growth, life skills I've gained and many friends. There was a long stretch of time when I went to many meetings every week and it made a huge difference in my recovery. Acceptance of myself and others, in all ways. Who we are in a given moment. That we're human, imperfect and fun to be around on a level that only other people who've been affected by this disease of alcoholism truly understand. My home group is filled with double winners. I love that, the focus that stays on Al-anon, many newcomers and good vibes. Each day I carry skills I learn through Al-anon with me. #lifeisgood #livinginthesolution #thankyougod |
I enjoyed hearing this, Mango. Welcome to the next level (whichever one that is). May you find many others there with you. |

I can feel your strength, spirit, positivity, your kindness and goodness which is very contagious thru each post your share Mango. :) I like that in a person. In you. Recovery life agrees with you for sure. Keep going, because you are definitely headed in the right direction. :) |
