stretch

wow
wow
double wow
and wow to the 3rd power
what is that saying? “more shall be revealed”
such is the slogan for the snapshot of my life right now. i understand now some of the reasons i stepped away from management those years ago. it holds challenges for me that had slipped into the mists. i was raised an only child and i struggle to this day in a “family’ environment. it isn’t second nature as it may be for others. i have been reminded almost daily that i have growing up to do- and my life invites me to grow patience and understanding.
of course i am really hoping (banking too) on my ability to stretch from my comfort zone here. certainly part of me is full of fear. it hurts to stretch and i can almost hear a cracking sound as my ego encounters its safety net.. there is an aspect of me though that fills with hope like a crushed plastic bottle regains it shape after being squeezed flat. my soul might very well be giving a metaphorical “ahhh”!
i hope so. i really hope so. i like the new direction.

The Big Book speaks to what has to happen to our ego’s when we get sober. I also can tell you that you can’t get sober and keep your ego. How best can you serve others, do it and not think about You while doing it. And how can you work with others in a family setting, one day at a time, not my will but thy will be done … I am pulling for you.
