Sorry late.. this mornings BOARD difficulty didn't allow me to get it posted sooner.. Taken from A Day At A Time.. March 31 Reflection For the Day "My illness is unlike most other illnesses in that DENIAL that I am sick is a primary sypmtom that I AM sick. Like such other incurable illnesses as diabetes and arthritis, however, my illness is characterized by relapses. In The Program, we call such relapses "slips". The one thing I know for certain is that I alone can cause myself to slip. WILL I REMEMBER AT ALL TIMES THAT THE THOUGHT PRECEDES THE ACTION? WILL I TRY TO AVOID "STINKING THINKIN?" Today I Pray May God give me the power to resist temptations. May the responsibility for giving in, for having my "slip," be on my shoulders and mine only. May I see BEFOREHAND if I am setting myself up for a slip by blame-shifting, shirking my responsibility to myself, becoming the world's poor puppet once again. My return to those old attitudes can be as much of a slip as the act of losing my sobriety (or over-eating)! Today I Will Remember Nobody's slip-proof. I sure could of used this today when I slipped and ate candy.. I was gonna blame Kimmy.. as she brought it in the office. But.. *I'M* the one who ate 'em.. ~sigh~.. BUT at the store tonight.. I did consciously say.. no Rhonda you don't need that.. you are not bringing it into the house.. baby steps.. in everything!! good evening peeps
