Good afternoon my friendly friends
I'm still sad but enjoying the wonderful moments that life offers
I'm with Athena my one old and Yulliana my one and half
At at national aboriginal day at a lake nice breeze nice weather
And the best part I'm sober yippee me
Now for another 24 for this amazed alcoholic.


To be able to invite pain to join in my experience and not have to control my life to avoid pain is such a freedom!

—Christina Baldwin


If we really stopped to think about it, we would be astounded to discover how much of our time is spent trying to avoid pain. We are afraid to say what we think or tell others our needs because we fear rejection. We are afraid to face the pain of our own anger. We are afraid of telling others who we are. When we are afraid of opening up to others for fear they will hurt us, we are not free, we are prisoners of our own fears.

Pain is a natural part of life, and we are gifted with the ability to feel it. Pain teaches us, makes us work harder sometimes, and it helps us appreciate pleasure.

When we accept pain, and stop exhausting ourselves trying to avoid it, we will be free to live life more fully and without so much worry.

How has my own fear limited my freedom?
