I have a physio appointment later this morning - I got back into exercise a bit too hard & fast, and now my knees are buggered. I've been kind of bummed about it because it feels like a setback, and it's hard to do basic things like climb stairs without pain. I guess it could be worse!

6:10am in Alberta, today is going to be a darn good day not to drink!
I'll have 24 more please, and thanks...

Dear Magnificent Soul,
Sometimes we have no idea how much our lives impact the lives of others.
Certainly we should not often make decisions based on what others think we should do, and we should always follow our own hearts and guts...our own paths. But something to think about is how we are able to help others keep going by simply keeping ourselves going.
Life is kind of like a big long marathon, and when others are running in front of us, behind us, and alongside us, it makes it easier for us to keep going too.
In the same way...others see you as an inspiration and motivation to keep going.
When we think about quitting, dear souls, let’s think about the others who have watched us and how that has helped them to keep going too. When we are having a hard time ...let’s think about the others who are able to be brave because we have been brave.
We all help each other in so many more ways than we know. We need each other...we need to take good care of each other. Let’s do that.
If it feels right and true, keep going, beautiful soul. Your fellow life-travelers are rooting for you, and you have so much more support than you can see.
You are so very loved.
xoxo

Transformation through Grief
We're striving for acceptance in recovery - acceptance of our past, other people, our present circumstances, and ourselves. Acceptance brings peace, healing, and freedom - the freedom to take care of ourselves.
Acceptance is not a one step process. Before we achieve acceptance, we go toward it in stages of denial, anger, negotiating, and sadness. We call these stages the grief process. Grief can be frustrating. It can be confusing. We may vacillate between sadness and denial. Our behaviors may vacillate. Others may not understand us. We may neither understand our own behavior nor ourselves while we're grieving our losses. Then one day, things become clear. The fog lifts, and we see that we have been struggling to face and accept a particular reality.
Don't worry. If we are taking steps to take care of ourselves, we will move through this process at exactly the right pace. Be understanding with yourself and others for the very human way we go through transition.
Today, I will accept the way I go through change. I will accept the grief process, and its stages, as the way people accept loss and change.

A decent film to watch when you're purging your system.
I'll need another 24 after that.
