I could have easily rolled over and turned off the alarm clock. I got out of bed. I could have easily blamed Saturday night's snow. I got ready. I am a reluctant participant in my own life. Screwed up, right? You don't need to agree with me I know the truth. I drove across the city. I went back to my original meeting. I got so wrapped up in my life? or self-pity? or whatever excuse I felt most comfortable with that I stopped showing up at my own life. I gave up on my ambition. In order for me to succeed at the new points plan I have to forget everything I thought I knew. Learn a new approach, find my way...and SHOW UP to participate in my journey.
The people at this meeting have always been very supportive. They still are. They welcomed me back as if I had only been away on a vacation. Sometimes you lose sight of how much others mean to you or what you might mean to them. It felt great to be amongst people I have grown to know and like. Now the real work begins. Stayed tuned. :)
