Hatred is never anything but fear - if you feared no one, you would hate no one. ~Hugh Downs
Today I am grateful...
- that my sober days pass fairly quickly and smoothly. My drinking days passed slowly and painfully.
- that Jim and I watched another couple hours of Elizabeth 1 last night. Brilliant and fascinating.
- that I NEVER have to do it by myself again
- for another day of sober history
- that Bunny thinks he is big and ferocious like a real guard dog
Having and setting healthy limits - healthy boundaries - isn't a tidy process. We can give ourselves permission to experiment, to make mistakes, to learn, to grow. We can talk to people, ask questions, and question ourselves. If there's something we need to do or learn, it will become apparent. Lessons don't go away. If we're not taking care of ourselves enough, well see that. If we are being too controlling, we'll grow to understand that too. Things will work out. The way will become dear. ~The Language Of Letting Go

So true. So true.
Bunny thinks he is big and ferocious like a real guard dog. Good Bunny. Good Bunny.
"Lessons don't go away".....a good thing too, because I often have a short memory. But HP keeps giving me those same gentle nudges till I finally get it.
I love Hugh Downs. He was a man ahead of his time.
Bunny has little dog syndrome. I love that syndrome, it has to be one of the cutet qualities.
