It's been a huge help to me to attend Al-anon meetings. When I go, I never attend the same group meeting. I go to a variety of new meetings because no day is the same, much like life -- in and of itself.
But, devoting an hour of each day to any meeting I choose to attend, helps me in practicing several skills. Like: letting go, keeping life simple, devoting care and attention to me, making life somewhat more pleasurable, in most all cases as it concerns me. Sometimes it's not easy to let go. After all, constantly caring for my son's kind of over took my own ability to care about me. So the biggest gift I give myself daily is doing things that ultimately show how much I care about myself. That, and riding my bicycle daily. I'm in great shape, I don't feel so stressed out, and I get a lot of joy from taking life and living life in simpler terms of lifestyle choices. |

Staying in the moment...
something I have learned and continue to learn... the moment is quite a rare place near a tranquil, winding river.... even a beaver might surprise me there on a rare occasion... to feel the sunshine on my face... to have THIS moment... to live a grateful life... NOW is all I am promised...and in my NOW I will be present... So today... I am given a precious HERE and NOW... and to have another hand in mine who happens to live that way... I am touched beyond words... a smile is rising in my heart... A grateful day is in front of me... carpe diem. |

So today I'm going to remember all the good I have in my life, and how I kinda live pretty positive on my days off. I'm going to stay positive today if it kills me! It's hard for me to be around so many negative, toxic people at work and not get down, but today I'm going to give it a go. I woke up with really good vibes about this.........

As I am always looking at the positive side of any given situation, I do stay positive.
I heard something said....be part of the solution, not part of the problem. So I don't view anything as a "problem" rather a solution! When one gives energy to anything negative, it will continue to have power to bring negative. So I choose to NOT give any power to anything negative & see it as a positive....confused yet...? lol

Practicing some positivity today by listening to one of my favorite playlists on Spotify, dancing around the house, and working down my "to do" list!

One of the things I have been doing over the past year when I'm feeling grumpy or having a "feeling sorry for myself" day is thinking back to where I was this time x amount of time ago.
Sometimes just looking at the present and saying, "But look how far you've come" or "think about how you felt this time last year" has been a super amazing lens for being grateful for the present. And lately? there's a LOT to be grateful for. <3
