Charing First Al-Anon meeting Tuesday
 

I can't believe I said I would chair a meeting. What was I thinking. I am the youngest in my Al-Anon group. They are going to be looking at me. I hate being the center of attention. My topic will be Self-esteem because that is what is very hard for me. I am trying to work on step 4 but I got scared and stopped. I will wait for a little while and then try again. I know they will not judge me but it is still hard. I think I will do a good job it should be asmall group because it is close to Christmas. Wish me luck.
Love,
Shana

(((((Shana))))),
That's great! I KNOW you'll do fine. You'll be in my thoughts and prayers. Let us know how it goes, OK?
Love and hugs,
Eddie

Good topic!
Good Luck Shana!

Shana,
You rock! You are an example to others. I am so proud of you. Even though you are scared, you don't let it stop you from trying things. You have come so far. I am sure that your group is very proud of you too. Let us know how it goes. Hugs, Magic

shana - your sr family is very proud and just like we were all scared to take a first step at anything, you will do a WONDERFUL job chairing your meeting, I just KNOW it!

hugs from your ohio buddy - cwohio

Shana,
You'll do just fine. There is nothing that is impossible, including being able to chair this meeting wonderfully. Of course, you'll be nervous, but your recovery will shine through, and you'll do a great job.

Hugs,
Trisha

Hello everyone. I chair the meeting tonight there was only 8 people there that was a relief for me. I did it. I did a great job. I comented three or four times tonight now just on the page I read but the other pages people read and i have never done that before. I told them why I pick self-esteem and I really shared how I was feeling about things going on now that are affecting myself esteem. I am going to chiar next week too and i am kind of looking forward to doing it again. Thanks for all your guys support.
LOve,
Shana

Shana,

It always helps me to remember that there's a Higher Power in the room and I ain't it! My sponsor reminds me that, when I'm fearful going into any situation, I can send HP ahead of me to create a safe place.

It's been my experience since the beginning that meetings take care of themselves. All I need to do as chairperson is to just show up!

Thanks for doing service, Shana! Keep up the good work!

shana - you'll be an old pro in no time! good for you on chairing the next meeting too - it will probably boost your self-esteem to boot!

applause, applause!
