"Merely to change my behavior, and what I say and do, doesn't prove there's been a change in my actual inner attitude. I'm deceiving myself if I believe I can somehow completely disguise my true feelings. They'll somehow come through, prolonging the difficulties in my relationships with others. I have to avoid half-measures in getting rid of the trouble-some emotions. I've been trying to hide. HAVE I TAKEN AN HONEST INVENTORY OF MYSELF? " "May I know that feelings will come out somehow - sometimes barely disguised as behavior that I cannot always understand. But that perhaps is more acceptable to me than the root emotion that caused it. May I completely and vigilantly be honest with myself. May I be given the insight that comes through depending upon a Higher Power." Today I will remember.. Feelings can come out "sideways." ~~from the daily reading of A Day At A Time.. ~~ hugssss
